Is HbA1c the same as Glycated Hb?
Although this test is conducted by various techniques, almost all of them do not report true HbA1c. In such cases the reported HbA1c is calculated from estimation of total HbA1 fraction, which includes other sugar modified hemoglobins. Some methods measure all the other hemoglobin variants and then reported as Total Glycated Hemoglobin or Glycohemoglobin (GHb).
