Pathology > HBA1c displays your data as a breakdown of HBA1c status:
Due to the current transition to new units both ranges will be displayed on the graph, the mmol/mol will be displayed in brackets:
% ranges |
Mmol/mol ranges |
<=7 |
<=53 |
>7 and <=8 |
>53, <=64 |
>8 and < 10 |
>64, <86 |
>= 10 |
>=86 |
The data is displayed as a pie chart. Functions available are as described for Allergies at the beginning of this chapter.
Details on the change of HbA1c units from percentage to mmol/mol can be found on page 6 of the guidelines for Diabetes Management available at
http://www.diabetesaustralia.com.au/en/For-Health-Professionals/Diabetes-National-Guidelines/
The CAT4 HbA1c graph will now report both % and mmol/mol. The MD and BP extractors will extract both units and the most recent result will be used. A conversion to the alternative units will be implemented using the conversion algorithm below:
Conversion from the old to the new units is as follows: |
Other graphs/reports that currently report in % will continue to display the % value.
The % sign will be included for clarity about which units are being reported
The most recent result will be used and a conversion back to % will be applied if the most recent result is in mmol/mol.
HbA1c Mappings with clinical systems
The HbA1c mappings are provided in the 'General Data Mappings' Appendices under Measurements for each clinical application.
