Full description

According to WHO report, the number of people with diabetes has risen from 108 million in 1980 to 422 million in 2014. Diabetes is a major cause of blindness, kidney failure, heart attacks, stroke and lower limb amputation. In 2012 alone diabetes caused 1.5 million death. Tight glucose control is essential for prevention of complications in people with diabetes. The Diabetes Control and Complications Trial (DCCT) provided direct evidence the relationship between HbA1c level and risks for diabetic complications in diabetes. Based on the results of the DCCT, the American Diabetes Association (ADA) has published recommendations for HbA1c and plasma glucose levels that are widely used. HbA1c testing can be performed at any time of day and without special patient preparation, it is more convenient for patients and even measuring fasting plasma glucose.

The ADA recommends measurement of HbA1c (typically 3-4 times per year for type 1 and poorly controlled type 2 diabetic patients, and 2 times per year for well-controlled type 2 diabetic patients) to determine whether a patient's metabolic control has remained continuously within the target range. .Most diabetes patients will go to hospital to measurement HbA1c, but should wait few days for test result. Most diabetes patient maybe not measurement HbA1c so many time per year. The PixoTest HbA1c measurement system can give result for a few minutes at home. The diabetes patient can measure HbA1c at home don't need go to hospital.

The PixoTest HbA1c measurement system is defined as the respective reagent system and the corresponding smartphone. It is intended for quantitative measurement of HbA1c in capillary whole blood and use in the home by people with diabetes mellitus as an aid to monitor the effectiveness of diabetes control.

This study is designed to test the accuracy and user performance of the Pixotest HbA1c measurement system.
