Overview of guidelines for management of GDM and pre
GDM
Currently, there are a number of country-specific guidelines
on diagnosis and treatment of GDM. These include American
Diabetes Association (ADA) guidelines, American College
of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists (ACOG) guidelines and
National Institute of Health and Clinical Excellence (NI CE)
guidelines and IADPSG guidelines. The high burden of GDM
in the Indian scenario mandates the framing of GDM-specific
guidelines for its clinical management. Thus, the current
recommendations have been formulated with the framework
of the pioneering DIPSI guideline to comprehensively diagnose
and manage GDM in India.
