Screening for Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM)
ثبت نشده
چکیده
While it is not possible to issue a guideline for the best method of screening, the use of a 75 g OGTT instead of an OGCT as first line of testing for women from high risk populations will avoid the inconvenience of further testing for both women and staff. Afternoon or evening clinics may be better advised to screen women using an OGCT (rather than an OGTT) because women are not required to fast for the OGCT.
