Q

A diabetic patient results are as follow:

i. FBS: 140 mg/dL - NV: <126 mg/dL

ii. RBS: 220 mg/dL -NV: <200mg/dL

iii. Repeated HbA1c : 3% -NV: 4-6%

Note: the patient has Low RBC count and increase reticulocyte count.

The results shown indicate?

a. Test is invalid, FBS and RBS are in conflict with HbA1c result
b. Patient has low glucose due to low HbA1c
c. Rerun HbA1c test
d. HbA1c is invalid due to the CBC result of the patient

A

HbA1c is invalid due to the CBC result of the patient

NOTE:
The patient has hemolytic anemia (low RBC count and high reticulocyte count). Therefore, HbA1c will be falsely low.
Proceed to fructosamine test
