Intrapartum and early postpartum glycemic profiles in women with gestational diabetes mellitus: an observational study.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Data on the glycemic profile of pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) during the perinatal period are sparse. This study described the intrapartum and early postpartum glucose profiles among pregnant women with GDM, and analyzed factors potentially affecting glycemic parameters during the period.

Methods

This was a prospective observational study conducted from March 2020 to November 2021.
