- Abstract
Introduction. Gestational diabetes is the type of diabetes characterized by the presence of glucose intolerance, that first appears or is first diagnosed during pregnancy. The diagnosis of this condition is established between the 24 th and the 28 th week of pregnancy by the presence of a single abnormal blood glucose level during the oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Given the complex pathology of this disease, making the right decision at the right time is the key to success for both the mother and the fetus, thus choosing the moment and way of birth in diabetic pregnancies is a challenge for the obstetrician. Material and method. Multiple studies conducted worldwide have not yet been able to determine the optimal time and manner of birth to avoid the complications that occur in pregnant women with gestational diabetes. In recent years, researchers have been looking for a perinatal care in order to find the best way to finish the pregnancy and limit the effects of gestational diabetes to both the mother and the newborn. Conclusions. The time and the way of birth for diabetic pregnancy depends on several factors, including gestational age, fetal status, pregnancy, parity, metabolic status and other pregnancy-related pathologies, technical possibilities of the hospital and professional experience of the medical team. Choosing the moment and the way of birth is a decision that must be taken individually in each case as the results of research have not yet found an optimal standard to solve this problem.
