Abstract (2. Language): 
In the newborn unit of our hospital, stat glucose analysis is done with a special fingerstick glucometer using capillary whole blood samples. In our central biochemistry laboratory, same analysis is done with an autoanalyser (022rate method) in serum samples. First method is frequently preferred because of requiring lesser volume of blood samples and having short measuring time. In this study we evaluated both confidence of glucometric measuring method and decreasing on glucose concentration of the samples that can not analyse in time. For this reason, we measured 50 blood samples' glucose concentration with two methods, and compared analysis results with each other. In addition, we separated serum of 42 same blood samples with 30 and 60 minutes extra delayed separation time and measured their glucose concentrations using autoanalyser 022rate method. In the results of statistical evaluations, correlation coefficient and linear regression equation between two methods were r = 0.967 and y = 1.05x + 6 . The differences between nondelayed and delayed samples with 30 and 60 minutes were 3.8 % and 8.2 % respectively. In conclusion, we can say that taking care hypoglycemia via a fingerstick glucometer is as reliable as autoanalyser 02 rate method, but delaying in serum separation process causes important decreasing glucose concentrations.
Abstract (Original Language): 
Hastanemiz yen/doğarı servisinde acil glukoz analizi, özel bir glukometre yardımıyla kapiller tam kan örneğinde; biyokimya laboratuvarında ise otoanalizör (02 rate yöntemi) ile serum örneğinde çalışılmaktadır. Analiz süresinin kısalığı ve örnek miktarının azlığı nedeniyle sıklıkla ilk yöntem tercih edilmektedir. Bu çalışmada hem glukometre ile ölçülen glukoz sonuçlarının güvenilirliğini hem de zamanında çalışılmayan örneklerde gecikmeden kaynaklanan glukoz azalmasını tespit etmeyi amaçladık. Bu maksatla yen/doğandan alınan 50 kan örneği her iki yöntemle de analiz edildi. Ayrıca bu örneklerden 42si normal pıhtılaşma süresine 30 ve 60 dakika ilavelerden sonra serumları ayrıştırılarak, glukoz seviyeleri ölçüldü. Serum ayırmada 30 dakikalık gecikmenin, analiz sonucunda %3.8'lik; 60 dakikalık gecikmenin de %8.2'lik azalmalara neden olduğu saptandı. Yöntemler arasında %11 lik farka rağmen; kuvvetli bir korelasyon (r=0.967) ve lineer ilişki fy-1.05x+6) tespit edildi. Buradan kapiller glukometre ile glisemi takibinin acil ve pratik maksatlar için uygun olduğu sonucuna varidi.
