Random Blood Glucose and Fasting Blood Glucose Tests at Pro-Gene Diagnostics and Research Laboratory
Blood glucose is an important aspect of a person’s health and it is important to keep a check on it. There are two commonly used methods to measure blood glucose levels, the Random Blood Glucose (RBG) test and the Fasting Blood Glucose (FBG) test. Both tests are important and serve different purposes, however, it is important to know the difference between the two to understand which one is more suitable for you.
At Pro-Gene Diagnostics and Research Laboratory, we offer both RBG and FBG and all other diabetic panel tests to our patients to help them monitor their blood glucose levels and detect any potential health problems. In this blog, we will take a closer look at both tests and how they are performed at our laboratory.
Random Blood Glucose Test
The Random Blood Glucose test is performed to check the level of glucose in a person’s blood at a random time. The test is performed regardless of whether the person has eaten or not, making it a convenient test for those who want to monitor their blood glucose levels frequently.
The test is performed by taking a small sample of blood from a person’s finger and analyzing it in a laboratory. The results of the test are available within a few minutes, and the blood glucose levels are usually reported in milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL).
Fasting Blood Glucose Test
The Fasting Blood Glucose test is performed to check the level of glucose in a person’s blood after fasting for a period of time. The test is performed after a person has fasted for at least 8 hours, making it an effective test for detecting potential health problems related to blood glucose levels.
The test is performed by taking a small sample of blood from a person’s finger and analyzing it in a laboratory. The results of the test are available within a few minutes, and the blood glucose levels are usually reported in milligrams per deciliter (mg/dL).
