DESCRIPTION
Convert a value of glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c) between different units of measurement and calculate the estimated average glucose (eAG).

Glycated hemoglobin (glycosylated hemoglobin or HbA1c) is a marker for the average blood glucose levels over the previous 2-3 months prior to the measurement. Therefore, monitoring HbA1c is useful in the management of diabetic patients.

The American Diabetes Association (ADA), the European Association for the Study of Diabetes (EASD) and the International Diabetes Federation (IDF) have planned in 2008 the switch of the reported glycated hemoglobin values from DCCT units (%) to IFCC units (mmol/mol).

This App was designed to provide a useful conversion tool between these units of measurement and an estimate of the average blood glucose levels based on the HbA1c value.
