C Peptide Response To Glucose 5 Hours Information
You Must Know
Test Name: C Peptide Response To Glucose 5 Hours
Sample Type:
Patient:
Male,Female,Child
- Purpose: The C Peptide Response To Glucose 5 Hours Test is a diagnostic procedure aimed at assessing the pancreatic response to glucose stimulation by measuring the levels of C peptide in the blood over a 5-hour period following glucose administration
- Methodology: This test involves administering a glucose solution orally or intravenously to stimulate insulin secretion, followed by serial blood sampling at regular intervals to measure C peptide levels
- Sampling: Blood samples are collected from the patient at baseline (before glucose administration) and at specified time points after glucose ingestion, typically at 30 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, and 5 hours
- Analysis: The collected blood samples are analyzed using immunoassay techniques to measure the concentration of C peptide, reflecting the pancreatic response to glucose stimulation
