HBA1C (Glycosylated Haemoglobin)
This test is done to measure glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), which forms when glucose attaches to red blood cells. Because red blood cells live about 2–3 months, HbA1c reflects long-term blood sugar control. It is widely used to diagnose diabetes and monitor ongoing glucose management.
