Test Includes: 50-gram one-hour glucose tolerance challenge Special Instructions: The patient need not be fasting. The one-hour screen requires a 50-gram oral glucose load followed by a plasma glucose determination one hour later. (Refer to Additional Information below.) See the online Endocrine Appendix: Glucose Tolerance: Gestational Diabetes Mellitus for further information regarding glucose tolerance testing. Specimen: Serum or plasma Volume: 1 mL serum or plasma each tube Minimum Volume: 0.5 mL serum or plasma each tube Container: Gel-barrier tube or gray-top (sodium fluoride/potassium oxalate plasma) tube Collection: Note: A fasting blood sample is not required. Draw one hour specimen after a 50-gram glucose challenge. The patient should remain seated and not smoke throughout the test. Submit 1 mL serum or plasma for one-hour specimen. Separate serum or plasma from cells within 45 minutes of venipuncture. Gray-top tubes only, may be submitted without centrifugation. Label tube with patient’s name and collection time interval (ie, one-hour). Storage Instructions: Maintain specimen at room temperature
