The aim of this study isto evaluate a quick, safe, noninvasive and painless method toscreen for diabetes during regular clinical examination usingself-monitoring glucometer.Material andMethods:
35 cases who were reported toPrimary health centre, sahdei buzurg for hematologicalexamination were selected for the study. Probing of gingivalsulcus was done using William’s WHO probe. Blood oozingfrom the sulcus was collected on the strip provided by theglucometer and blood glucose level was recorded. For control,finger prick capillary blood was collected and blood glucoselevel was analyzed. Statistical analysis was done usingPearson’s Correlation Coefficient.Result:
The result revealed strong correlation betweengingival crevicular blood and peripheral capillary measuredblood glucose level.Conclusion:
Gingival crevicular blood collected duringclinical examination may be an excellent painless source ofblood for glucometric analysis.
