PMGlycaemic control is an important aspect in managing diabetes in
order to prevent its complications .The study objectives were to
compare the glycaemic control in patients monitored by fasting
plasma glucose (FPG) and 2 hours postprandial glucose
(PPG),determine the correlation between FPG and PPG with HbA1c and
fructosamine and the factors associated with the control. FPG,HbA1c
and fructosamine was drawn at 0 hour and PPG was drawn after 2
hours taking a standard breakfast. After 6 months,out of 82
patients (41 PPgroup, 39 FGgroup), 58.5% subjects in PP and 43.6%
in FG were having good control of HbA1c. There was significant
difference in mean glycaemic control (HbA1c and Fructosamine)
between both groups(p=0.029, p=0.034).Both PPG and FPG
significantly correlated with HbA1c and fructosamine but PPG showed
better correlation to HbA1c than FPG (r= 0.604 vs.0.575).The
sensitivity, specificity and PPV of PPG were 75%, 80.6% and 82.5%
whereas FPG were 81.8%, 58.3% and 70.6% respectively. Factors
associated with glycaemic control include age, number of OHA and
without nephropathy.Thus, PPG predicted overall glycaemic control
better than FP
