Plasma glucose 1 hour ABF Price in Bangladesh

What is Plasma glucose 1 hour ABF?

This test measures blood glucose levels one hour after eating to evaluate how the body processes sugar. Preparation involves fasting for at least 8 hours before breakfast, followed by eating a standard meal.

Steps include a blood sample taken one hour after eating. Risks are minimal, though some may experience slight discomfort from the blood draw.

After the test, normal activities can be resumed. Results help diagnose diabetes or glucose intolerance; higher levels may indicate poor glucose control.

Conditions like recent illness or medication use can affect results.

What to expect & how to prepare

A sample is collected at the centre and analysed in the laboratory. The sample type — blood, urine, stool or another body fluid — depends on the specific test, and the collection staff will tell you which one applies.

• Fasting: only some laboratory tests need fasting, and this varies test by test. Ask the centre whether fasting is required for this specific test when you book, rather than assuming.
• Medication: tell the laboratory about medicines, supplements and recent injections, because some can affect results.
• Requesting slip: bring the doctor's advice or previous reports so the laboratory runs and compares the right test.
• Report timing: turnaround differs between routine and specialised tests — the centre will tell you when your report is ready.

Have a registered doctor interpret the result together with your symptoms rather than self-diagnosing from reference ranges.
