Early screening of gestational diabetes mellitus using maternal hemoglobin A1C: Revision of current screening guidelines
Background: HbA1C has been a known predictor and diagnostic test for diabetes type 2. However, this test has not yet been widely studied in GDM and more importantly no cutoff point has been defined for HbA1C in GDM. We investigated the efficacy of screening during first and second trimester of pregnancy and defined appropriate cutoff points according to HbA1C and FBS for predicting maternal GDM...
متن کاملHemoglobin A1c as screening for gestational diabetes mellitus in Nordic Caucasian women
BACKGROUND Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) increases the risk for preeclampsia and macrosomia. GDM is conventionally diagnosed by an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) is a marker for the average glucose level the last 2-3 months. We aimed to study if HbA1c alone or in combination with patient characteristics can be used to screen for GDM and reduce the number of OGT...
متن کاملFirst Trimester Hemoglobin A1c Prediction of Gestational Diabetes.
Objective The objective of this study is to examine whether a first trimester hemoglobin A1c (A1C) of 5.7 to 6.4% predicts an abnormal second trimester oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Methods We conducted a retrospective cohort study of all women screened with A1C through 13 (6/7) weeks' gestation between January 1, 2011, and December 31, 2012. Prediabetic women (A1C of 5.7-6.4%) were compa...
متن کاملGlycohemoglobin A1c: A promising screening tool in gestational diabetes mellitus
CONTEXT Current screening tests for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are inconvenient. Therefore, alternative screening tests for GDM are desirable. The use of glycohemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) in screening for GDM remains controversial. AIM We undertook this study to evaluate the utility of HbA1c in screening for GDM. SETTINGS AND DESIGN Retrospective study in a tertiary teaching hospital. ...
متن کاملUse of hemoglobin A1c as an early predictor of gestational diabetes mellitus.
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to assess an early hemoglobin A1c (HgbA1c) value from 5.7-6.4% as an early predictor of progression to gestational diabetes (GDM). STUDY DESIGN A retrospective cohort study was performed on all women who delivered at a single institution over 2 years who had an early screening HgbA1c test performed at ≤20 weeks of gestation. Women with known preexisting...
