Best Diabetic Hospital in Hyderabad
Klavo Health Clinic is one of the best diabetes clinics in Hyderabad for screening and treating diabetes and associated problems. We have specialist diabetologists and trained medical staff who can provide excellent medical care to all individuals affected by different types of diabetes.
Diabetology is a subspecialty of endocrinology that is responsible for diagnosing, treating and preventing Diabetes Mellitus and its complications. Diabetes affects millions of people around the world, especially in Asian countries. A Diabetologist is a physician specialised in diabetology who can treat and control diabetes through timely medication and dietary changes.
He can also diagnose the severe complications caused by diabetes such as diabetic retinopathy, diabetic peripheral neuropathy and diabetic foot ulcers in their early stages, therefore preventing the morbidity and mortality of the patient.
The modern sedentary lifestyle is one of the main reasons for the sudden rise in the number of people affected by diabetes. Some trusted sources say that more than 62 million Indians are suffering from different types of diabetes as of now. It is predicted that these numbers will reach 100 million by 2035 if diabetes is not properly treated.
Diabetes is on the rise, and many people are unaware of the complications it can cause. Therefore, it is essential to take certain precautions, such as:
- Early screening for diabetes
- Learn about the health risks associated with high blood glucose levels
- Assessing your heart health on a regular basis (uncontrolled long-term diabetes increases the risk of heart disease)
- If you have diabetes know how to control it, either with medication or through lifestyle and diet changes
Klavo Clinic is one of the best diabetes clinics in Hyderabad which is dedicated to managing and treating diabetes and its complications in diabetic patients. Our team of diabetologists aims to bridge the gap between diabetic patients who are not aware of the disease and the healthcare providers who care for them. The vast experience of our doctors makes them an excellent choice for managing diabetes. This is why we evolved as the best diabetes hospital in Hyderabad.
Tests to diagnose diabetes
The major tests we perform to diagnose diabetes include:
- FPG (fasting plasma glucose) Test
- OGTT (oral glucose tolerance test) blood test
- Random Plasma Glucose Tests
The FPG test is a typical procedure. The person who undergoes the test should eat anything at least for eight hours before the test. Pre-diabetes can also be detected by this test.
Blood sugar is measured with the OGTT after a person has fasted for eight hours and after drawing blood he will be given a glucose-containing beverage. The test is performed after two hours of having the drink.
In a random plasma glucose test, the blood sugar level is tested regardless of when someone ate their meal.
