Haemoglobin a1c (medicine)


haemoglobin A1C
<haematology> The substance of red blood cells that carries oxygen to the cells and sometimes joins with glucose.

Because the glucose stays attached for the life of the cell (about 4 months), a test to measure haemoglobin A1C shows what the person's average blood glucose level was for that period of time.
