Interventions

  • POC-cHbA1c — DIAGNOSTIC_TEST
    Research staff will use quality-certified POC HbA1c devices to perform finger-prick capillary HbA1c testing for participants. Testing will be completed on site and results will be provided immediately.
  • Fingerstick RBG — DIAGNOSTIC_TEST
    Research staff will use standardised glucometers and test strips to measure fingerstick random blood glucose. Test results will be provided on site.

Study Details

This project aims to compare Point-of-care capillary HbA1c (POC-cHbA1c) testing and fingerstick random blood glucose (RBG) testing in terms of type 2 diabetes detection rate and cost-effectiveness, in order to optimise current screening strategies for rural populations at high risk of diabetes in rural Dali, China, and to improve treatment adherence and self-management among people with diabetes.
