Test Code

Glucose Random (Blood Sugar Random) measures the concentration of glucose in the blood without considering the timing of the last meal. It is commonly used for quick screening of diabetes, monitoring known diabetic patients, and evaluating symptoms such as excessive thirst, frequent urination, fatigue, or unexplained weight loss. Unlike fasting or post-prandial tests, no special preparation is required. Persistently high random glucose values may indicate diabetes mellitus or poor glycemic control, while low values may suggest hypoglycemia.
