| Glycemic Assessment: A1C to Average Glucose Conversions |
Notes
- Click any of the four input boxes to enter a value. The other three values will be calculated from your input.
- A1C: hemoglobin A1C.
- DCCT is the Diabetes Control and Complications Trial.
- IFCC is the International Federation of Clinical Chemistry.
- Equations used when A1C(%) is entered:
- A1C(mmol/mol) = 10.929 * (A1C(%) - 2.15)
- Estimated average glucose(mg/dL) = (28.7 * A1C(%)) - 46.7
- Estimated average glucose(mmol/L) = Estimated average glucose(mg/dL) / 18.015
- Equations used when A1C(mmol/mol) is entered:
- A1C(%) = (A1C(mmol/mol) / 10.929) + 2.15
- Estimated average glucose(mg/dL) = (28.7 * A1C(%)) - 46.7
- Estimated average glucose(mmol/L) = Estimated average glucose(mg/dL) / 18.015
- Equations used when Estimated average glucose(mg/dL) is entered:
- A1C(%) = (Estimated average glucose(mg/dL) + 46.7) / 28.7
- A1C(mmol/mol) = 10.929 * (A1C(%) - 2.15)
- Estimated average glucose(mmol/L) = Estimated average glucose(mg/dL) / 18.015
- Equations used when Estimated average glucose(mmol/L) is entered:
- Estimated average glucose(mg/dL) = Estimated average glucose(mmol/L) * 18.015
- A1C(%) = (Estimated average glucose(mg/dL) +46.7) / 28.7
- A1C(mmol/mol) = 10.929 * (A1C(%) - 2.15)
