Abstract

Introduction: Glycated hemoglobin is a sensitive predictorof the long-term complications of diabetes. Hemoglobin A1c(HbA1c) measurements can be performed using point of caretesting (POCT) devices, and comparing POCT devices with highperformance liquid chromatography (HPLC) is essential. Thisstudy aimed to compare the HBA1c results of POCT devices withHPLC in diabetic patients with and without hemoglobinopathy.Methods: Twenty-six diabetic patients with hemoglobinopathyand 51 diabetic patients without hemoglobinopathy areincluded in this study. HbA1c analyzes were performed usingTri-stat POCT analyzer (Trinity Biotech, Ireland) from venousblood and capillary blood, Premier Hb 9210 (Trinity Biotech,Ireland) HPLC method only from venous blood of patients.Results: HbA1c levels did not differ statistically in patientswithout hemoglobinopathy between HPLC and capillary bloodPOCT, HPLC and venous blood POCT, capillary blood POCT,and venous blood POCT, p=0.392, p=0.167, and p=0.288),respectively. HbA1c levels also did not differ statistically inpatients with hemoglobinopathy between HPLC and venousblood POCT (p=0.076).Conclusion: Tri-stat POCT analyzer results did not differstatistically in comparison to HPLC results in patients. POCTdevices approved by the ministry and accepted by theauthorities can be used safely in HbA1c analyzes. Cliniciansmay prefer both methods in patients with type 2 diabetes whoneed close follow-up, and whose treatment regimen will beaffected by this follow-up.

Özet

Amaç: Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) diyabetin uzun dönem komplikasyonlarını hassas olarak belirlemektedir. HbA1c ölçümleri hasta başı test cihazları (HBTC) ile yapılabilmekte olup, bu HBTC’lerin yüksek performanslı sıvı kromatografi (HPLC) ile kıyaslanması önem arzetmektedir. Bu çalışmada hemoglobinopatisi olan ve olmayan hastaların HbA1c sonuçlarının HBTC HbA1c cihazı (Tri-stat Analyzer, Trinity Biotech) ve HPLC (Hb Premiere) ile karşılaştırılması amaçlanmıştır. Yöntemler: Hemoglobinopatili 26 diyabetik, hemoglobinopatisiz 51 diyabetik hasta çalışmaya alındı. Hastaların HbA1c analizleri Tri-stat HBTC kullanılarak (Trinity Biotech, Ireland) venöz ve kapiller kandan, Premier Hb 9210 (Trinity Biotech, Ireland) HPLC kullanılarak sadece venöz kandan çalışılmıştır. Bulgular: Hemoglobinopatisi olmayan hastaların HbA1c düzeyleri karşılaştırıldığında HPLC - kapiller kan HBTC arasında (p=0,392), HPLC - venöz kan HBTC arasında (p=0,167) ve venöz kan HBTC - kapiller kan HBTC arasında (p=0,288) istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark saptanmamıştır. Hemoglobinopatisi olan hastaların HbA1c düzeyleri karşılaştırıldığında HPLC - venöz kan HBTC arasında da (p=0,076) istatistiksel olarak anlamlı bir fark saptanmamıştır. Sonuç: Hastalarda, Tri-stat HBTC’yi HbA1c sonuçları HPLC ile karşılaştırıldığında istatistiksel olarak farklı değildi. Bakanlıkça onaylı ve otoriteler tarafından kabul gören HBTC’yi HbA1c analizlerinde güvenle kullanılabilir. Klinisyenler, yakın takibe ihtiyaç duyan ve tedavi rejimi bu takipten etkilenecek tip 2 diyabetli hastalarda her iki yöntemi de tercih edebilirler.
