Co-relation of Glycosylated Hemoglobin (HbA1c) levels and Duration of Diabetes with Peripheral Artery Disease
Journal Title: IOSR Journal of Dental and Medical Sciences (IOSR-JDMS) - Year 2017, Vol 16, Issue 10
Abstract
Introduction:Peripheral artery disease is a major macrovascular complication of diabetes mellitus. The present study was carried out to find out the levels of glycosylated haemoglobin and duration of diabetes in diabetics with PAD and study its comparison to diabetics without PAD. Materials and Method:This prospective observational study was carried out from June 2015 to May2017 and 100 diabetics were enrolled who underwent Ankle Brachial Pressure Index measurement for diagnosis of PAD. The HbA1c levels and duration of Diabetes were compared between diabetics with PAD and Diabetics without PAD. Result: We observed a direct relationship between the HbA1c levels and PAD. The mean HbA1c in diabetics with PAD was 8.25±0.65 compared to 7.32±0.47 in diabetics without PAD. The known duration of diabetes was 7.98±1.7 years in diabetics with PAD compared to 6.07±2.1 years in diabetics without PAD.
