Abstract: Objective To discuss the effect of blood glucose monitoring during pregnancy and pregnancy outcome in patients with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Methods One hundred and fifty-three GDM patients from July 2007 to July 2008 were analysed.The cases were divided into satisfactory group (74 cases)and unsatisfactory group (79 cases) based on the level of bleod glucose and compared the pregnancy outcome between the two groups. Results The incidences of pre-eclampsia, polyhydramnios, macrosomia, neonatal hypoglycemia, hyperbilirubinemia of satisfactory group were lower than those of unsatisfactory group(5.41% vs 17.72%,4.05% vs 20.25%, 12.16% vs 31.65% , 5.41% vs 20.25%,8.11% vs 30.38%). The difference is statistically significant (P <0.05). The incidence of premature rupture of membranes, premature birth, postpartum hemorrhage, fetal distress of satisfactory group were lower than those of unsatisfactory group, but there was no significant difference between the two groups. Conclusion GDM can cause great harm to maternal and child health, and satisfactory blood glucose control during pregnancy may reduce maternal and child complications.
