Abstract:
Incidence of pregnant diabetes ranges from 1 to 14%, depending on region, race and diagnostic criteria. Studying on 196 pregnant women who were given antenatal care at Ha Noi Obstetric Gynecological Hospital provided some findings as follow: the incidence of pregnant diabetes in studied population was 3.6% when using diagnostic criteria of the National Diabetes Data Group (NDDG) 1979; the incidence of NDNG was 4.1%. The overall incidence for diabetes and GDNG was 7.65% and is was increased further by 2% when applying new diagnostic criteria of Counstan and Carpenter 1982. The incidence was increased in pregnant women who had some risk factors such as history of diabetes in family, obese (BMI was 25 or more), urinary glucose (+) and older age of pregnant woman.
