Glukoza po 50g glukozy - oznaczenie po 1h

Glucose measurements are used in the diagnosis and treatment of patients with carbohydrate metabolism disorders (diabetes, neonatal hypoglycemia, idiopathic hypoglycemia). Preventive examinations (detection of diabetes and pre-diabetes) as well as check-ups in patients from risk groups and pregnant women are also indicated.

An increase in glucose concentration is observed in diabetes, pituitary and adrenal gland disorders, pancreatic diseases, in dialysis patients or during pregnancy.

A decrease in glucose levels occurs with an overdose of insulin, oral antidiabetic drugs, in hormonal hypofunction of the pituitary and adrenal glands, in congenital metabolic blocks and in toxic liver damage.

Previously diagnosed diabetes is a contraindication to the examination.
