targets within 2 weeks from nutritional therapy alone, insulin
therapy should be initiated
Rapid-acting bolus analog insulin may be used over regular insulin
for postprandial glucose control although perinatal outcomes are
similar.For women who are non-adherent to or who refuse insulin,
glyburide or metformin may be used as alternative agents for
glycemic control. Use of oral agents in pregnancy is off-label and
this should be discussed with the patient.
Nursing Responsibilities-
Antenatal care
Antenatal supervision should be at monthly intervals up to
20th week and thereafter at two weeks interval up to 30th
week.
The daily calorie requirement is about 30-35kcal per kg of
bodyweight and an additional 200kcal for the need of the
fetus. Fat may be reduced if the woman is obese.
Fiber containing food items are increased and a four-meal
regimen with a bedtime snack is usually advised. Oral
hypoglycemic agents are changed to insulin.
Frequent blood glucose estimation is required.
Assessment of the fetal well-being is to be made from 32nd
week onwards.
Labour And Delivery-
Induction of labor is done is in the presence of following
indications:
Multipara with good obstetrical history
Young primigravida without any obstetric abnormality.
Presence of congenital malformation of the fetus
Induction is done by low rupture of membranes and simultaneous
oxytocin drip. Discussion Ppt
Cesarean section is indicated in the following conditions: method
Elderly primigravidae
Multigravida with bad obstetrical history
Diabetes difficult to control.
Obstetrical complications like pre-eclampsia,

polyhydramnios and malpresentation
Presence of large baby.
Spontaneous onset of labour at term and vaginal delivery are
awaited in the following conditions:
Young primigravidae or multiparae with good obstetrical
history.
Diabetes well controlled either by diet, insulin or both or
without any obstetrical complications.
During labour, control of blood glucose is achieved through
administration of IV dextrose and soluble insulin with hourly
estimation of blood glucose.(4.0 and 7.0 mmol/L) Epidural
anaesthesia is preferred than strong analgesics as they might depress
the fetal respiratory center.
The nurse should monitor fetal condition throughout labour using
electronic fetal monitoring.
A pediatrician should be present during the delivery especially if
labour has been induced as a baby with premature lungs may require
resuscitation.
Postnatal Care-
A diabetic mother who is breastfeeding should be encouraged to
increase her carbohydrate intake by 50mg a day because of the
increased nutritional demands.
The diabetic women are more prone to infection and delayed
healing. Antibiotics are given prophylactically to minimize
infection.
Women should be screened with a 75g OGTT between 6 weeks
and 6 months postpartum to detect prediabetes and diabetes.
12 2min To conclude Conclusion- gestational diabetes is an important topic to be
the topic concerned in the aspect of nurses as nurses can prevent maternal and
fetal complications by early diagnosing of gestational diabetes,
proper antenatal, intarnatal and postnatal care.
