Description

Random Blood Sugar (RBS) measures glucose at any time of day without fasting. It is useful for rapid screening in symptomatic individuals, routine wellness camps, or emergency settings when fasting is impractical. Elevated levels may indicate diabetes or stress hyperglycemia and should be confirmed with FBS and HbA1c. The test involves a simple blood sample and provides quick insight into current glycemic status. Clinicians often pair RBS with symptoms to decide next steps.
