Abstract
Glycated Haemoglobin (HbA1c) gives a measure of long term Glycemic control. However, how the values of HbA1c affects the outcome in various comorbidities and its effect on the short term and long term outcome of these comorbidities remains a matter of Grey Zone. Cardiovascular Diseases, Chronic Kidney Disease, Anemia, Chronic Liver Disease etc, can alter the interpretation of HbA1C level, where it may not reflect the appropriate Glycemic control. Hence this review is done to look for the evidence and appropriateness of HbA1c as Diagnostic and Prognostic marker for Glycemic control in various clinical scenario.
