Conversion Chart Of Glycosylated Haemoglobin (GHb) to

Mean Blood Glucose (MBG), Mean Plasma Glucose (MPG) and HbA1c
The glycosylated haemoglobin assay has been validated as a reliable indicator of mean blood glucose (MBG) levels
for a period of 8-12 weeks prior to determination and provides clinical assessment of long term diabetic control.
Recently, the glycohaemoglobin test has been shown to have a linear correlation with MBG results from patients
performing self-monitoring of blood glucose levels.
