Random Plasma glucose Price in Bangladesh

What is Random Plasma glucose?

The Random Plasma Glucose test measures blood sugar levels at any time, regardless of meals. It helps diagnose diabetes or monitor existing conditions.

No special preparation is needed. A blood sample is taken via a fingerstick or vein.

During the test, you may feel a slight prick. Risks are minimal, but include slight discomfort or bruising at the puncture site.

Results are interpreted as follows: normal is below 140 mg/dL, prediabetes is 140-199 mg/dL, and diabetes is 200 mg/dL or higher. Factors like stress, illness, or medications 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.
