Measurements of total glycohemoglobin (glycoHb) or hemoglobin A1c are routinely used to evaluate intermediate-to-long term glycemic control in patients with diabetes. However, despite the recent availability of more rapid methods for glycohemoglobin determination, it remains difficult in many institutions to obtain same-day glycoHb determinations in time to assist physicians with management of outpatients with diabetes. Hence, we investigated whether fructosamine, which reflects very recent (2 to 3 weeks) glycemic control and which can be assayed more rapidly in our laboratory, could serve as a useful adjunct to glycoHb for management of these patients.
