Extended profile for diabetes monitoring

Diabetes mellitus Is a chronic, metabolic disease that causes an increase in blood sugar (glucose) levels.

Normally, when your blood sugar level rises, pancreatic beta cells produce a hormone in response. Insulin, which is considered to be the body’s major anabolic hormone and regulates the absorption of glucose from the blood into the liver, adipose and skeletal muscle cells. Insulin enhances glucose uptake and metabolism, thereby lowering blood sugar levels.

If you have diabetes, your body will either not produce enough insulin or will not be able to use the insulin it produces effectively. When there is not enough insulin in the body or the cells stop responding to insulin, excess blood sugar remains.

High blood sugar levels damage organs and tissues throughout the body. The higher the blood sugar level and the longer it is maintained, the greater the risk of developing serious health problems such as heart disease, vision problems and kidney disease.

Determination of creatinine და General analysis of urine - Caused by diabetes Kidney disease Allows assessment of developmental risk or already developed disease, in addition to diabetes monitoring.

Total cholesterol და Determination of triglycerides - Caused by diabetes Heart disease და Circulatory problems (which can lead to damage to the hands, feet, and feet) Allows you to assess the risk of developing or already developing the disease, in addition to monitoring your diabetes.

It is in order to prevent these complications that it is recommended to conduct an extended profile study of diabetes monitoring.

How to prepare for the test?

The test should be performed on an empty stomach.

It is recommended to limit alcohol intake, smoking and strenuous physical activity for at least 12 hours before the study.

Tell your doctor about the medications you are taking before the test.
