Objectives: To assess the accuracy of point-of-care (POC) measurements of capillary blood glucose and glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) levels in a remote Aboriginal community with high diabetes prevalence. Design: Cross-sectional study comparing POC capillary glucose and HbA1c results with those from corresponding venous samples measured in a reference laboratory. Participants and setting: 152 residents aged 11–76 years (representing 76% of population aged over 11 years) had POC glucose measurement in November 2003; 88 with POC glucose level ≥ 5.0 mmol/L, or self-reported diabetes, had POC HbA1c and laboratory glucose and HbA1c measurements. Main outcome measures: POC fasting capillary levels of glucose (HemoCue Glucose 201 analyser, Medipa...
