GTT – 5 SAMPLES

The Hypro Diagnostics 5-sample Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT) – Extended is a vital diagnostic tool for assessing the body’s sugar processing efficiency. Specifically designed for precision, this test plays a key role in identifying conditions such as diabetes, insulin resistance, and, in certain cases, reactive hypoglycemia. The procedure entails a period of fasting, followed by the consumption of a glucose-infused beverage, with subsequent blood samples collected at strategic intervals—namely, at fasting, 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, and 4 hours post-glucose intake. Through this meticulous monitoring process, the 5-sample GTT provides a detailed profile essential for diagnosing diabetes, gestational diabetes in pregnant individuals, insulin resistance, and other conditions impacting glucose metabolism. The nuanced insights derived from this test are invaluable for Hypro Diagnostics in delivering precise diagnostic information for effective healthcare strategies.
