Plasma glucose 1 hr after dinner Price in Bangladesh

What is Plasma glucose 1 hr after dinner?

This test measures blood sugar levels one hour after eating to assess how the body processes glucose. Preparation typically involves eating a regular meal before the test.

During the test, a blood sample is taken from the vein one hour after dinner. Risks include slight discomfort or bruising at the blood draw site.

After the test, there are no special requirements. Results help evaluate glucose metabolism and may indicate prediabetes or diabetes if levels are elevated.

Conditions like insulin resistance or stress can affect the results, causing higher readings.

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.
