- Ma’am, what to do if on 3rd day after delivery the fasting blood glucose and postprandial blood glucose doesn’t come within normal range in case of mother with GDM?
- Ma’am, is it required to monitor every 2 hour glucose value once we start iv insulin, as one complete dose of insulin mixed in 500 ml NS is taking 5 hours to get administered? ( In case of Intrapartum insulin requirement in GDM)
Post delivery follow up patients with GDM
.Immediate pospartum care: woman with GDM is not different form woman without GDM, but hese women are at high risk of developing type 2 diabetes mellitus in future
Materanl glucose levels usually return to nomal after delivary
Nevertheless a fasting plasma glucose and 2-hour OOOG performed in the 3rd day of delivery at the place of delivery.For this reason GDM cases are not discharged after 48hrs unlike other nomal PNC cases
