Glycosylated hemoglobin in diabetic and nondiabetic dogs

Abstract
SUMMARY: Glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1) was measured in 40 nondiabetic hospitalized dogs, 16 clinically normal laboratory colony dogs, and 16 diabetic dogs. Mean HbA1 values (% of total Hb) for the 3 groups were 6.43, 5.62, and 9.63, respectively. The mean values for the 2 nondiabetic groups differed significantly (PP1 concentrations greater than 7.5%. These results suggested that HbA1 measurement may be valuable for monitoring effectiveness of therapy in canine diabetes mellitus.
