Abstrakt: Detection and diagnosis are pivotal processes in identifying and confirming diseases, often initiated through preliminary tests or screenings. Hyperglycemia, detected through blood glucose tests and symptom observation, is critically important not only in diabetes but also in various diseased states, including oncotherapy, where elevated blood sugar levels can exacerbate outcomes. Effective monitoring and control of blood glucose levels significantly enhance quality of life and reduce health risks. Managing prolonged hyperglycemia is closely associated with Diabetes Mellitus (DM), a pressing global health challenge contributing to an estimated 4.2 million deaths annually. India shoulders a substantial burden, with over 77 million adults currently diagnosed with diabetes, affecting both genders and showing varying prevalence across regions. Given its severe implications, timely and accurate detection is imperative. This review explains the evolution of glucose estimation techniques, tracing their progression from traditional urine-based tests to modern blood glucose monitoring devices. These advancements play a pivotal role in early detection and proactive management of diabetes, aiming to improve patient outcomes and alleviate the disease burden. Innovations like glucometers and continuous glucose monitoring systems have significantly enhanced patient care, leading to improved precision and control in glucose management.
