The Handbook On Diagnostic Significance Of HbA1C
Diabetes mellitus is a chronic metabolic disorder with a significant global health impact, necessitating accurate diagnosis and effective long-term monitoring to prevent acute and chronic complications. Glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C) has emerged as a cornerstone biomarker in the diagnosis and management of diabetes, as it reflects average blood glucose levels over the preceding 2–3 months and correlates strongly with the risk of both microvascular and macrovascular complications.
The TOSOH PROFESSIONAL ASSISTANCE PROGRAM (TPAP) handbook is a comprehensive resource that brings together scientific principles, clinical relevance and analytical recommendations related to HbA1C testing. Leveraging Tosoh’s expertise in high-performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) based HbA1C analysis, TPAP aims to focus on HbA1C physiology, measurement methodologies and analytical performance. By effectively bridging laboratory science and clinical practice, the TPAP handbook serves as a valuable tool for improving the diagnosis, monitoring and management of diabetes, ultimately contributing to better patient outcomes.
