glycemia
Glucose in blood
Glycemia is the presence or concentration of glucose in the blood.
The term appears mainly in medical contexts, often in compound forms: hyperglycemia (high blood sugar), hypoglycemia (low blood sugar).
The patient's glycemia was monitored throughout the procedure.
Also spelled glycaemia in British English.
