The formula to calculate the A1C level from GMI is:
\[ A1C = \frac{GMI + 2.59}{1.59} \]
Where:
A GMI to A1C conversion translates the average glucose levels in the blood, known as Glucose Management Indicator (GMI), into an A1C value. A1C is a common test used to diagnose and manage diabetes, as it provides an average of blood glucose levels over the past 2-3 months. The GMI to A1C conversion allows healthcare providers to estimate a patient’s A1C levels based on their continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) data.
Let's assume the following value:
Step 1: Calculate the estimated A1C level:
\[ A1C = \frac{120 + 2.59}{1.59} = 76.59 \text{ percent} \]
Therefore, the estimated A1C level is 76.59%.
