| name | Deprecated Glucose [Mass/volume] in Blood --pre-meal | ||
| description | Whole blood glucose levels measured prior to a meal (e.g. 2 hours prior) and often by a glucose meter. Glucose meters provide rapid analysis of blood glucose levels and to help manage both hypoglycemic and hyperglycemic disorders with the goal of adjusting glucose to a near-normal range.[PMID: 20144348] | ||
