,Prediabetes Diagnosis – Fasting Blood Glucose Range
A 52-year-old client presents for an annual wellness examination. The client has a
family history of type 2 diabetes mellitus and reports a sedentary lifestyle.
Laboratory testing reveals a fasting blood glucose level that is elevated above
normal but does not meet the criteria for diabetes mellitus. Which fasting blood
glucose range is consistent with a diagnosis of prediabetes?
A. Less than 100 mg/dL
B. 70–99 mg/dL
C. 100–125 mg/dL
D. Greater than or equal to 126 mg/dL
Correct Answer: C. 100–125 mg/dL
Rationale:
Prediabetes is a condition in which blood glucose levels are higher than normal
but not high enough to meet the diagnostic criteria for diabetes mellitus. A
fasting blood glucose level between 100 and 125 mg/dL indicates impaired
fasting glucose and is considered prediabetes. Individuals within this range have
an increased risk of developing type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
Lifestyle modifications such as weight loss, dietary changes, and regular physical
activity can significantly reduce disease progression. A fasting glucose level of
126 mg/dL or higher on two separate occasions is diagnostic for diabetes.
Prediabetes Diagnosis – Hemoglobin A1c Range
A nurse practitioner reviews laboratory results for a patient who is at risk for
developing type 2 diabetes mellitus. The provider explains that hemoglobin A1c
reflects the average blood glucose level over the previous 2 to 3 months. The
patient's result falls within the range indicating prediabetes. Which HbA1c range
is diagnostic for prediabetes?
A. Less than 5.0%
B. 5.0%–5.6%
,C. 5.7%–6.4%
D. Greater than or equal to 6.5%
Correct Answer: C. 5.7%–6.4%
Rationale:
Hemoglobin A1c measures the percentage of hemoglobin molecules that have
glucose attached and reflects long-term glucose control. An HbA1c level between
5.7% and 6.4% is diagnostic for prediabetes. This range indicates impaired
glucose regulation and an increased risk for future diabetes development. Early
identification allows healthcare providers to implement interventions aimed at
preventing progression to type 2 diabetes. An HbA1c level of 6.5% or greater is
one of the diagnostic criteria for diabetes mellitus.
Prediabetes Diagnosis – Oral Glucose Tolerance Test
A patient undergoes a 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) after a screening
examination suggests abnormal glucose metabolism. The patient consumes a
standardized 75-gram glucose solution, and blood glucose is measured two
hours later. The provider explains that the results indicate prediabetes rather than
overt diabetes. Which 2-hour OGTT value is consistent with prediabetes?
A. Less than 140 mg/dL
B. Greater than or equal to 200 mg/dL
C. 100–139 mg/dL
D. 140–199 mg/dL
Correct Answer: D. 140–199 mg/dL
Rationale:
The oral glucose tolerance test evaluates the body's ability to process glucose
after a carbohydrate challenge. A 2-hour blood glucose level between 140 and
199 mg/dL indicates impaired glucose tolerance, which is classified as
prediabetes. Individuals in this range are at increased risk for developing type 2
diabetes and cardiovascular disease. Values below 140 mg/dL are considered
, normal, while values of 200 mg/dL or greater are diagnostic for diabetes mellitus.
Early intervention can help delay or prevent progression to diabetes.
Diabetes Mellitus Diagnosis – Random Blood Glucose
A 47-year-old client presents to the emergency department with excessive thirst,
frequent urination, unexplained weight loss, and fatigue. The healthcare provider
orders a random blood glucose test to evaluate for diabetes mellitus. The results
confirm the diagnosis when combined with the client's classic symptoms of
hyperglycemia. Which random blood glucose level is diagnostic for diabetes
mellitus?
A. Greater than or equal to 100 mg/dL
B. Greater than or equal to 126 mg/dL
C. Greater than or equal to 140 mg/dL
D. Greater than or equal to 200 mg/dL
Correct Answer: D. Greater than or equal to 200 mg/dL
Rationale:
A random plasma glucose level of 200 mg/dL or higher, in the presence of
classic symptoms of hyperglycemia, is diagnostic for diabetes mellitus. Common
symptoms include polyuria, polydipsia, polyphagia, fatigue, and unexplained
weight loss. This diagnostic criterion allows for rapid identification and treatment
of diabetes without requiring fasting. Other accepted diagnostic tests include
fasting plasma glucose, HbA1c measurement, and the oral glucose tolerance test.
Prompt diagnosis is important to reduce the risk of acute and chronic diabetic
complications.
