Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) Explained | OGTT Made Easy The Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT) is a diagnostic procedure used to assess glucose metabolism, aiding in the diagnosis of diabetes mellitus, gestational diabetes, and conditions like reactive hypoglycemia. Preparation involves consuming a carbohydrate-rich diet for at least three days, fasting overnight, and avoiding medications or activities that could affect glucose levels. The procedure begins with a fasting blood glucose measurement, followed by ingestion of a glucose solution, with subsequent blood samples collected at specific intervals to monitor glucose levels. Results are interpreted based on WHO criteria, with diagnostic thresholds varying for non-pregnant adults and pregnant women. The OGTT is a sensitive tool, particularly for detecting early glucose intolerance and diagnosing gestational diabetes, but its limitations include being time-intensive, requiring multiple blood draws, and being susceptible to external factors like stress or preparation non-compliance. #oralglucosetolerancetestexplained #ogttmadeeasy #OGTT #OGTTEXPLAINED #FBS Join this channel to get access to perks:    / @learnmedicineasap   --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Subscribe for more medical and health content:    / @learnmedicineasap   Check out our other helpful playlists Obstetrics and Gynecology    • Obstetrics and Gynecology   General Surgery Lessons    • General Surgery Lessons   Internal Medicine    • Internal Medicine   Child Health and Pediatrics    • Child Health and Pediatrics   Pharmacology Lecture Videos    • Pharmacology Lecture Videos   Anaesthesiology | Anesthesiology    • Anaesthesiology | Anesthesiology   Medical Parasitology    • Medical Parasitology   Infectious Diseases    • Infectious Diseases   Pathology    • Pathology   Microbiology    • Microbiology   Anatomy    • Anatomy   Ear Nose and Throat - ENT    • Ear Nose and Throat - ENT   Oral Health | Oral Hygiene | Dental Health    • Oral Health | Oral Hygiene | Dental H...   Ophthalmology | Eye Infections | Eye Diseases    • Ophthalmology | Eye Infections | Eye ...   Oncology    • Oncology   Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD) | Sexual Wellness & Health - Sexual Infection | STI    • Sexually Transmitted Disease (STD) | ...   Women's Health    • Women's Health   Men's Health    • Men's Health   Vitamins, Minerals and their Deficiencies | Vitamin Deficiencies | Mineral Deficiencies    • Vitamins, Minerals and their Deficien...   Clinical Skills | Clinical Techniques    • Clinical Skills | Clinical Techniques   Pharmacology Mnemonics    • Pharmacology Mnemonics   Internal Medicine Mnemonics    • Internal Medicine Mnemonics
