title: Glycohemoglobin (GHb): a new test for the evaluation of the diabetic patient and its clinical importance.
abstract: A new laboratory test, glycohemoglobin determination, can be used to monitor long-term blood glucose levels with a single venipuncture, regardless of whether the patient is in a fasting state. This test is of obvious value in both the diagnosis of the latent diabetic patient and the monitoring of the controlled diabetic patient.
