Gestational Diabetes Mellitus
undefined
PROFESSOR HENRY A.A. UGBOMA.
1
Diabetes is defined as a syndrome of multiple aetiology
( inherited or acquired ) characterized by chronic
hyperglycaemia with disturbances of carbohydrate, fat
and protein metabolism due to deficient action of insulin
on target tissues ( resulting from inadequate insulin
secretion, insulin resistance or both) WHO, 1999.
2
Diabetes mellitus in pregnancy (DIP) and
Gestational Diabetes mellitus (GDM) is
hyperglycaemia detected any time in
pregnancy.

What is glucose intolerance in pregnancy?
Dilemma
(a)
Large numbers of procedures
(b)
Large numbers of glucose cut offs.
WHO, 1999 attempted to answer this
question with laid down criteria which was
not diagnostic but prognostic.

Not evidence based
•
Presence of new data (1999 is over 10
years)
•
Fasting blood sugar of ≥7mmollL
considered very high

a)
One value is sufficient for diagnosis
b)
Two or more values are required for diagnosis
c)
Two or more values required for diagnosis
d)
One value is sufficient for diagnosis

•
GDM - carbohydrate intolerance __ hyperglycemia
__variable severity ___ onset or first recognition during
pregnancy.
•
1st trimester / 1st half of second trimester the fasting
and postprandial glucose concentrations are normally lower
than in normal, non pregnant women, Hence, elevated levels
may reflect diabetes antedating pregnancy. Criteria for
detecting high glucose concentrations at this time are not
established.
•
Formal systemic testing for GDM is usually between 24
and 28 weeks of gestation.
•
To determine presence of GDM, standard OGTT will be
performed (fasting 8 – 14h, giving 75g anhydrous glucose in
250-300ml water).

WHO 2010
_____ expert group ____ Review definition,
diagnosis and classification of glucose intolerance in
pregnancy.
Recommendation 1 (CONSENSUS) :
Distinguishing
between Diabetes and lesser degree of glucose
intolerance in pregnancy-by:
•
Diabetes in pregnancy, whether symptomatic or
not ____ significant risk of adverse perinatal outcome.
•
Pregnant women with more severe hyperglycemia
are excluded from epidemiological and intervention
studies.
•
When detected early in pregnancy, management
is different.
11
1.)
Distinguishing between Diabetes and GDM.
2.)
Principles of management in both are similar,
but there are differences in approaches (evidence
based).
•
Detailed assessment of presence of diabetes
related complication ____retinopathy, renal
impairment.
•
Intensive monitoring and treatment of
hyperglycemia in pregnancy.
•
Follow-up of women and treatment after
pregnancy.
12
RECOMMENDATION 2:
DIP diagnosed by 2006 WHO criteria if one or
more of the following criteria are met.
•
Fasting plasma glucose ≥7.0 mmol/l
(126mg/dl)
•
2-h plasma glucose ≥11.1 mmol/l
(200mg/dl) following a 75g oral glucose load.
•
Random plasma glucose ≥11.1 mmol/l
(200mg/dl) in the presence of diabetes
symptoms.
NEW:
Accepted universally in non-pregnant
individuals, but in pregnancy these values
are recorded as GDM.
13
RECOMMENDATION 3:
GDM diagnosis at any time is based on any one of the
following values.
•
Fasting plasma glucose =5.1-6.9mmol/l(92-125mgldl)
•
1-h post 75g oral glucose Load>=10.0mmol/l
(180mg/dl)
•
2-h post 75g oral glucose load 8.5-11.0mmol/l (153-
199mgldl)
NOTE:
Above definition of GDM applies at any time during pregnancy.
However, in non obese pregnant women, FPG declines by about
0.5mmol/l(9mg/dl) by end of 1st trimester or early in the
second.
Hence, using cut off of 5.1mmol/l (92mg/dl) early in pregnancy
may over diagnose GDM in non-obese women. However high
first trimester FPG levels (but lower than those diagnostic of
diabetes) are associated with increased risks of later diagnosis of
GDM and adverse pregnancy outcome.

Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) is a condition of glucose intolerance in pregnancy, characterized by hyperglycemia. It poses risks to both mother and baby, including macrosomia, birth trauma, neonatal complications, and long-term complications. The diagnosis of GDM involves criteria set by WHO in 1999, but challenges exist due to varying glucose cutoffs. Understanding and managing GDM is crucial for optimal pregnancy outcomes.
