ABSTRACT

 

Background: In Pakistan, high rates of gestational diabetes among pregnant women are associated with high rates of infant and mother death. The importance of government and business sector research on GDM management cannot be overstated. T

Method: From March 2018 to January 2020, a total of 50 Private and Public hospitals of Punjab were studied in a prospective manner.1500 pregnant women were checked throughout pregnancy

Results: Study showed that GDM was discovered in 96 pregnant women. OGTT was performed more frequently in private hospitals than in public hospitals, and pregnant women were tested more frequently in public hospitals than in private hospitals. GDM management necessitates the use of more than just a community health center.

Conclusion: There the government should make it a priority to aggressively involve public health facilities in the care of gestational diabetes in pregnant mothers.
