Abstract
The Diabetes In Pregnancy Study group India (DIPSI) is reporting practice guidelines for GDM in the Indian
environment. Due to high prevalence, screening is essential for all Indian pregnant women. DIPSI recommends that as a pregnant woman walks into the antenatal clinic in the fasting state, she has to be given a 75g oral glucose load and at 2 hrs a venous blood sample is collected for estimating plasma glucose. This one step procedure of challenging women with 75 gm glucose and diagnosing GDM is simple, economical and feasible.
Screening is recommended between 24 and 28 weeks of gestation and the diagnostic criteria of ADA are applicable. A team approach is ideal for managing women with GDM. The team would usually comprise an obstetrician, diabetes physician, a diabetes educator, dietitian, midwife and pediatrician. Intensive monitoring, diet and insulin is the corner stone of GDM management. Oral agents or analogues though used are still controversial. Until there is evidence to absolutely prove that ignoring maternal hyperglycemia when the fetal growth patterns appear normal on the ultrasonogram, it is prudent to achieve and maintain normoglycemia in every pregnancy complicated by gestational diabetes. The maternal health and fetal outcome depends upon the care by the committed team of diabetologists, obstetricians and neonatologists. A short term intensive care gives a long term pay off in the primary prevention of obesity, IGT and diabetes in the offspring, as the preventive medicine starts before birth. tuning of glycemic level during pregnancy is possible INTRODUCTION

It may be our country was 16.55% by WHO criteria of 2 hr PG ≥ appropriate to use the term ‘Decreased Gestational 140 mg/dl.5 As such Universal screening during glucose tolerance (DGGT)’ instead of impaired pregnancy has become important in our country.

This one step procedure of mg/dl. This level is also applied to diagnose GDM by challenging women with 75 gm glucose and diagnosing WHO criteria. Hence it may be prudent to label 2 hr plasma glucose value > 140 mg/dl as GDM and a 2 hr plasma glucose value > 120 mg/dl as ‘Decreased IAGNOSTIC CRITERIA

The term IGT American Diabetes Association (Carpenter and should not be used to denote any abnormal value during Couston) recommends 3 hour 100 gm OGTT and pregnancy. The figures suggested below are easy to Gestational Diabetes Mellitus is diagnosed if any 2 values meet or exceed FPG > 95 mg/dl, 1 hr PG > 180 mg/dl, 2 hr PG > 155 mg/dl and 3 hr PG > 140 mg/dl.
This criteria was originally validated against the future risk of these women developing diabetes and not on the fetal outcome. Carpenter himself now recommends a 2 hour OGTT with 75 gm glucose. The reason for this is that “when a glucose tolerance test is administered to non-pregnant individuals, it is standard to use the 75-g, Gestational Weeks at Which Screening is

The recent concept is to screen for countries around the world, typically using the same glucose intolerance in the first trimester itself as the fetal thresholds as in non-pregnant individuals”.7 To beta cell recognizes and responds to maternal glycemic standardize the diagnosis of GDM, the World Health level as early as 16th week of gestation.16 If found negative Organisation (WHO) proposed using a 2 hour 75 gm at this time, the screening test is to be performed again OGTT with a threshold plasma glucose concentration around 24th – 28th week and finally around 32nd – 34th of greater than 140 mg/dl at 2 hour, similar to that of IGT, outside pregnancy.8 Still all these recommendations (ADA and WHO) have not projected the influence of the MANAGEMENT OF GDM

The implications of GDM for her baby and herself Insulin is essential if medical nutrition therapy fails to achieve euglycemia. Various criteria have been proposed for the initiation of insulin therapy. Fourth International Workshop on GDM recommended Self administration of insulin and adjustment of lowering capillary blood glucose concentration to 140 mg/dl at 1 hour and 120 mg/dl at 2 hours,18 whereas Identification and treatment of hypoglycemia ADA recommended the option of measuring 1 hour post meal values with cut off of 120mg/dl.19 These recommendations are based on one single determination, which reflects a “snap shot” of glucose evaluation rather Development of techniques to reduce stress and cope than a “video” of continuous glucose profile.20 The continuous glucose monitoring system has established Care should be taken to minimise the anxiety of the that in normal pregnancy, peak plasma glucose occurs at 60 minutes and the value was 108.7 ± 16.9 mg/dl.1 In B) Medical Nutrition Therapy (MNT)
a woman with GDM, the peak occurs between 70 – 110 minutes (at approximately 90 minutes) and with a good a) General Principles : All women with GDM should glycemic control the value was 103 ± 26 mg/dl.20 receive nutritional counseling. The meal pattern should However, being interstitial fluid glucose it has its own provide adequate calories and nutrients to meet the needs of pregnancy. The expected weight gain during pregnancy is 300 to 400 gm/week and total weight gain If the FPG concentration on the OGTT is >120mg/dl, is 10 to 12 kg by term. Hence the meal plan aims to then the patient is started on insulin immediately along provide sufficient calories to sustain adequate nutrition with meal plan. Other GDM women are seen within 3 for the mother and fetus and to avoid excess weight gain days and are also taught self monitoring of blood glucose and post prandial hyperglycemia.

This implies splitting the usual breakfast into units and the dose of insulin can be adjusted on follow two equal halves and consuming the portions with a up. A few GDM patients may require combination of two hour gap in between. By this the undue peak in short acting insulin and intermediate acting insulin in plasma glucose levels after ingestion of the total quantity of breakfast at one time is avoided. For example if 4 idlis If a patient has elevated prelunch blood sugar, / chappathi / slices of bread (applies to all type of regular insulin is usually necessary in the morning breakfast menu) is taken for breakfast at 8 am and two to handle the post breakfast hyperglycemia, as there hours plasma glucose at 10 am is 140mg: the same is a lag period before the intermediate-acting insulin quantity divided into two equal portions i.e., one portion begins to work. The above regimen of regular and at 8 am and remaining after 10 am, the two hours post intermediate-acting insulin in the morning controls prandial plasma glucose at 10.00 am falls by 20 – 30 mg.
If the post dinner blood sugar is high, a small dose of regular insulin is necessary before dinner in glibenclamide and metformin is interesting.

Combination of regular and intermediate acting The success of the treatment for a woman with GDM insulin before dinner may be necessary if fasting depends on the glycemic control maintained with meal blood sugar is high. This combination of short and plan or pharmacological intervention. To know the intermediate acting insulin in the morning and as effectiveness of treatment, monitoring of glycemic control well as in the evening is known as mixed and split dose of insulin regimen. In this regimen two-third Once diagnosis is made, medical nutritional therapy of the total daily dose of insulin is given in the (MNT) is advised initially for two weeks.

Insulin dose is individualized.
