Pregnant women's finger prick blood sugar test standard

What is the normal value of fingertip blood sugar? Diabetics often need to accurately measure their blood sugar level, and fingertip blood sugar level is one of the indicators. Do you know what is the normal value of fingertip blood sugar level? The following is a detailed introduction for everyone.

A quick and easy way to self-test blood sugar is to measure finger capillary blood sugar (commonly known as finger capillary blood sugar).

Postprandial blood sugar is an extremely sensitive indicator that directly reflects the pancreatic function damage of diabetic patients and the actual effect of treatment. Testing fasting and pre-meal blood sugar levels can help detect hypoglycemia; testing blood sugar levels 2 hours after meals can well reflect whether meals and blood sugar lowering are appropriate; testing blood sugar levels before going to bed can help guide meals, prevent nighttime hypoglycemia, and ensure sleep quality; testing blood sugar levels from 1 to 3 in the morning can help detect whether there is nighttime hypoglycemia and determine the real cause of fasting high blood sugar.

1. Normal fasting blood sugar level

The general fasting whole blood glucose level is 3.9-6.1 mmol/L (70-110 mg/dL), and the blood glucose level is 3.9-6.9 mmol/L (70-125 mg/dL).

A fasting whole blood glucose value ≥6.7mmol/L (120mg/dL) and a blood glucose value ≥7.8mmol/L (140mg/dL) repeated twice can confirm diabetes.

When the fasting whole blood glucose value is above 5.6mmol/L (100mg/dL) and the blood glucose value is above 6.4mmol/L (115mg/dL), a glucose tolerance test should be done.

When the fasting whole blood glucose value exceeds 11.1mmol/L (200mg/dL), it means that the metabolism of insulin glargine is very little or lacking. Therefore, when fasting blood sugar is significantly elevated, diabetes can be diagnosed without other tests.

2. Postprandial blood sugar standard value

1 hour after meal: blood sugar level 6.7-9.4mmol/L. The maximum value does not exceed 11.1mmol/L (200mg/dl)

2 hours after meal: blood sugar level ≤7.8mmol/L.

3 hours after meal: recovered after the third hour, all urine sugars were negative

3. Normal blood sugar levels for pregnant women

Pregnant women should not exceed 5.1mmol/L on an empty stomach

Pregnant women 1 hour after meal: Postprandial blood sugar 1 hour after meal is generally used to test pregnant women for diabetes. Authoritative data show that the normal blood sugar level for pregnant women is no more than 10.0mmol/L 1 hour after meal.

2 hours after a meal for pregnant women: The normal blood sugar level after a meal is generally required not to exceed 11.1mmol/L, and the normal blood sugar level 2 hours after a meal for pregnant women is required not to exceed 8.5mmol/L.
