Treatment of diabetes mellitus in pregnancy
Current treatment for type one diabetes is an automated insulin delivery system. This system includes a continuous glucose monitor, insulin pump , and a computer algorithm that continually adjusts insulin responding to the continuous glucose monitoring signal. Pretensions of treatment are: Fasting blood glucose situations at< 95 mg/ dL.(<5.3 mmol/ L) 2- Hour postprandial situations at ≤ 120 mg/ dL.(≤6.6 mmol/ L) No wide blood glucose oscillations Glycosylated haemoglobin (HbA1c) situations at<6.5 Insulin is the traditional medicine of choice because it cannot cross the placenta and provides more predictable glucose control; it's used for types 1 and 2 diabetes and for some women with gravid diabetes. Mortal insulin is used if possible because it minimizes antibody conformation. Insulin antibodies cross the placenta, but their effect on the fetus is unknown. In some women with long- standing type 1 diabetes, hypoglycemia doesn't spark the normal release ...
