What is it indicated for?

The ADVIA® Chemistry Enzymatic Hemoglobin A1c (A1c_E) assay is an in vitro diagnostic assay for the quantitative determination of mmol/mol HbA1c (IFCC) and % HbA1c (DCCT/NGSP) in human anticoagulated venous whole blood and hemolysate for use on the ADVIA® Chemistry systems. Measurement of Hemoglobin A1c is used as an aid in the diagnosis and monitoring of long-term blood glucose control in patients with diabetes mellitus, and as an aid in the identification of patients at risk for developing diabetes mellitus.

Indications for use as stated in the FDA summary.
