The majority of the patients with Macro-vascular complications were present in the patients with HbA1C% >11 i.e. 22% as compared to 4% HbA1C<11 this observed difference is statistically significant. (χ2 = 27.63,df=1,p<0.0001) The majority of the patients with Micro-vascular complications were present in the patients with HbA1C% >11 i.e. 32% as compared to 8% HbA1C<11 this observed difference is statistically significant. (χ2 = 41.92,df=1,p<0.0001). Conclusion: It can be concluded from our study that the micro-vascular and macro-vascular complications were significantly associated with HbA1C% >11.
