Looking to book a Fructosamine Test in Delhi? Read below to know about the test.
Fructosamine is formed when a sugar (like glucose) attaches itself to a protein (like albumin, globulin, or lipoprotein), and they are combined. The fructosamine test measures the average blood glucose level over a period of 2-3 weeks. This is because the life cycle of a protein like albumin is short. It is very similar to an HbA1c test which measures the average blood glucose level over a period of 3 months. Fructosamine test is very useful and majorly done for diabetic patients.

AN OVERVIEW
About Fructosamine Test
Why is the Fructosamine test done?
When a person has diabetes, the doctor orders the fructosamine test. This is done to see if the person is taking accurate measures to control the blood sugar levels. In addition, this test is very helpful to see short-term effects of diet, exercising, or medication that the individual is following.
A fructosamine test is also recommended during pregnancy; the body goes through changes on a week-to-week basis. The short cycle of changes allows the doctor and the person to track the blood sugar levels.
Fructosamine is also ordered for people suffering from anaemia or abnormal haemoglobin concentration due to several genetic disorders.
What does the Fructosamine test measure?
Fructosamines are compounds that are created when a reaction occurs between an amine (that is, a protein) and a sugar molecule.
The fructosamine test measures the amount of glucose (on average over a short period) bound to proteins in the plasma or serum, both coming from the fluid inside the blood. Glucose is absorbed and used up by the body through the food we eat to provide energy to the body.The higher the amount of blood sugar (like glucose), the more it will bind to the proteins in the system. The most abundant protein found in the blood fluid is albumin and is the main indicator for this test. Proteins like albumin, globulin, or lipoprotein are present in the body for about 14-21 days (2-3 weeks), making the fructosamine test perfect for measuring average glucose level over 2 to 3 weeks.
Risk/Side-effects of Fructosamine test
Generally, there is very little risk of any major symptoms inside the body. The person might feel slight pain (or some bruising) in the area where the needle has been pierced to take the blood. But those tend to disappear pretty quickly and not cause any major problems to the patient. In very rare cases, the patient might develop blood collection under the skin or infection at the site where the needle was pierced. But that is a very rare occurrence and nothing major to worry about.

THINGS TO KNOW AFTER GETTING TESTED
Interpreting the Fructosamine Test Results
Fructosamine test results are shown in micromoles per litre of blood. The measurement is shown in various units in the test report. Each laboratory has a certain range which is called the normal range. That is the range for the expected values seen in the individual.
Elevated levels or rising levels of fructosamine in the blood could indicate that the body is not able to manage glucose adequately. If the level of fructosamine is on a decline as opposed to the previous tests, that could be an indication of the lifestyle changes working and the body adapting to better use of glucose.
It is important to consult your doctor or physician after getting the results for the fructosamine tests. When the doctor sees the result, they can mention the adequate changes in medication, diet, or lifestyle that you might need to incorporate to get more positive results.
