- Abstract
Objective: The aim of this study was to determine the prevalence of gestational diabetes at the obstetrics and gynecology department of the Erciyes University. Patients and Methods: All pregnant women admitted for routine pregnancy follow-up between November 2006 and February 2008 were included in the study. Each patient received a 100g oral glucose tolerance test between 24 to 28 weeks of gestation. Maternal age, number of previous pregnancies, parity, weight, height, family history of diabetes and whether they delivered a macrosomic baby (? 4000g) were recorded. Results: Mean maternal age was 28±5.5 (16-44) years. Mean parity was 1.1±1.2 (0-6); 171 patients (42%) were nullipara, 104 were primipara (26%) and 130 (32%) were multipara. The body mass index of the patients before pregnancy and at the time of 100g oral glucose tolerance test was 24.6±4.3 kg/m2 (16.6-40.7) and 27.8±4.3 kg/m2 (17.3-43.1), respectively. GDM prevalence of 405 patients according to the Carpanter-Coustan criteria was 11.4% (46 patients), whereas the prevalence according to the National Diabetes Data Group citeria was 6.2% (25 patients). Conclusion: The GDM prevalence at our institution according to the Carpanter-Coustan and National Diabetes Data Group criteria was 11.4% and 6.2%, respectively.
