Objective: To investigate the effects of systematic pregnancy management on labor and maternal and infant outcomes in gestational diabetes mellitus patients (GDM).
Methods: From February 2020 to December 2021, 116 patients who were diagnosed with GDM at the first hospital of Hebei medical university were enrolled in this prospective study. According to the random number table, patients were divided into the control group (n = 58, routine nursing) and the intervention group (n = 58, systematic pregnancy management).
Results: After treatment, the blood glucose levels of both groups decreased compared to that measured before treatment, and the blood glucose levels in the intervention group were lower than those in the control group (P < .05). After treatment, the lipid profile cholesterol levels of both groups decreased compared to those measured before treatment. However, the lipid profile cholesterol levels were lower in the intervention group than those in the control group (P < .05). The first, second, and third stages of labor and total labor time in the intervention group were lower than those in the control group (P < .05). The rate of natural delivery in the intervention group was higher than that in the control group, while the rate of cesarean section was lower than that in the control group (P < .05).
Conclusion: Systematic pregnancy management can reduce the level of blood glucose and improve lipid metabolism in patients with GDM.
