Dysglycemia in Pregnancy can Result in Adverse Pregnancy Outcome

• Elevated glucose levels can have adverse effects on the fetus– 1st trimester ↑ fetal malformations– 2nd and 3rd trimester: ↑ risk of macrosomia and

metabolic complications

Need a Preconception Checklist for Women with Pre-existing Diabetes

1. Attain a preconception A1C of ≤7.0% (if safe)

2. Assess for and manage any complications

3. Switch to insulin if on oral agents

4. Folic Acid 5 mg/d: 3 months pre-conception to 12 weeks post-conception

5. Discontinue potential embryopathic meds: Ace-inhibitors/ARB (prior to or upon detection of pregnancy) Statin therapy

• ACE inhibitors can be divided into three groups based on their molecular structure:• Sulfhydryl-containing agents[edit]• Captopril (trade name Capoten), the first ACE inhibitor• Zofenopril• Dicarboxylate-containing agents[edit]• This is the largest group, including:• Enalapril (Vasotec/Renitec)• Ramipril (Altace/Prilace/Ramace/Ramiwin/Triatec/Tritace)• Quinapril (Accupril)• Perindopril (Coversyl/Aceon/Perindo)• Lisinopril (Listril/Lopril/Novatec/Prinivil/Zestril)• Benazepril (Lotensin)• Imidapril (Tanatril)• Trandolapril (Mavik/Odrik/Gopten)• Cilazapril (Inhibace)• Phosphonate-containing agents[edit]• Fosinopril (Fositen/Monopril) is the only member of this group• Naturally occurring[edit]• Casokinins and lactokinins, breakdown products of casein and whey, occur naturally after ingestion of milk products, especially 

cultured milk. Their role in blood pressure control is uncertain.[24]

• The lactotripeptides Val-Pro-Pro and Ile-Pro-Pro produced by the probiotic Lactobacillus helveticus or derived from casein have been shown to have ACE-inhibiting and antihypertensive functions

Preconception Counseling for Pregestational Diabetes

• Advise reproductive age women with diabetes about

reliable birth control– NOTE: Metformin in PCOS may improve fertility need to

warn about possible pregnancy

– Metformin safe for ovulation induction in PCOS

• Achieving a healthy weight is essential – obesity

associated with adverse pregnancy outcomes

Page 12: Ch36 Pregnanدرحاب Cy

guidelines.diabetes.ca | 1-800-BANTING (226-8464) | diabetes.caCopyright © 2013 Canadian Diabetes Association

• Metformin is safe in pregnancy and women with gestational diabetes treated with metformin have less weight gain during pregnancy than those treated with insulin. Babies born to women treated with metformin have been found to develop less visceral fat, making them less prone to insulin resistance in later life.

Screen for Complications: Pre-pregnancy and Intrapartum

Screening for:

1. Retinopathy: Need ophthalmological evaluation

2. Nephropathy: Assess creatinine + urine

microalbumin / creatinine ratio (ACR)– Women with microalbuminuria or overt nephropathy are at

↑ risk for hypertension and preeclampsia

Page 14: Ch36 Pregnanدرحاب Cy

guidelines.diabetes.ca | 1-800-BANTING (226-8464) | diabetes.caCopyright © 2013 Canadian Diabetes Association

Recommendations 1-2: Preconception Care

1. All women of reproductive age with type 1 or type 2

diabetes should receive advice on reliable birth control,

the importance of glycemic control prior to pregnancy,

impact of BMI on pregnancy outcomes, need for folic

acid and the need to stop potentially embyropathic

drugs prior to pregnancy [Grade D, Level 4].

2. Women with type 2 diabetes and irregular

menses/PCOS who are started on metformin or a

should be advised that fertility may improve and be

warned about possible pregnancy [Grade D, Consensus].

Recommendation 3: Preconception Care

3. Before attempting to become pregnant, women

with type 1 or type 2 diabetes should:

a) Receive preconception counseling that

includes optimal diabetes management and

nutrition, preferably in consultation with an

interdisciplinary pregnancy team to optimize

maternal and neonatal outcomes [Grade C, Level 3]

Recommendation 3: Preconception Care (continued)

b) Strive to attain a preconception A1C of ≤7.0% (or

A1C as close to normal as can safely be achieved)

to decrease the risk of:

– Spontaneous abortion [Grade C, Level 3]

– Congenital anomalies [Grade C, Level 3]

– Pre-eclampsia [Grade C, Level 3]

– Progression of retinopathy in pregnancy [Grade A, level

1 for type 1 diabetes (23); Grade D, Consensus for type 2 diabetes]

Page 17: Ch36 Pregnanدرحاب Cy

c) Supplement their diet with multivitamins containing 5

mg of folic acid at least 3 months pre-conception

and continuing until at least 12 weeks post-

conception [Grade D, Level 4]. Supplementation should

continue with a multivitamin containing 0.4-1.0 mg

of folic acid from 12 weeks postconception

through to 6 weeks postpartum or as long as

breastfeeding continues [Grade D, Consensus].

Recommendation 3: Preconception Care (continued)

Page 18: Ch36 Pregnanدرحاب Cy

guidelines.diabetes.ca | 1-800-BANTING (226-8464) | diabetes.caCopyright © 2013 Canadian Diabetes Association

d) Discontinue medications that are potentially

embryopathic, including any from the following

classes:

• ACE inhibitors and ARBs prior to conception

or upon detection of pregnancy [Grade C, Level 3]

• Statins [Grade D, Level 4]

guidelines.diabetes.ca | 1-800-BANTING (226-8464) | diabetes.caCopyright © 2013 Canadian Diabetes Association

4. Women with type 2 diabetes who are planning a

pregnancy should switch from non-insulin

antihyperglycemic agents to insulin for glycemic

control [Grade D, Consensus].

Women with pregestational diabetes who also

have PCOS may continue metformin for

ovulation induction [Grade D, Consensus].

Recommendation 4: Preconception Care

Page 20: Ch36 Pregnanدرحاب Cy

guidelines.diabetes.ca | 1-800-BANTING (226-8464) | diabetes.caCopyright © 2013 Canadian Diabetes Association

Recommendations 5 and 6: Preconception and Complications

5. Women should undergo an ophthalmological

evaluation by an eye care specialist [Grade A, Level 1, for

type 1; Grade D, Level 4 for type 2].

6. Women should be screened for chronic kidney

disease prior to pregnancy [Grade D level 4 for type 1 diabetes

Grade D, consensus for type 2 diabetes]. Women with

microalbuminuria or overt nephropathy are at

increased risk for the development of HTN and

preeclampsia [Grade A level 1]; and should be followed

closely for these conditions [Grade D, Consensus]

Postpartum care for pre-existing diabetes

1. Adjust insulin at risk of hypoglycemia

2. Encourage women to breastfeed

3. Metformin and glyburide may be used during breast-

feeding no long term data but appears safe

4. Screen for postpartum thyroiditis in T1DM

check TSH at 6-8 weeks postpartum

Recommendation 7: Management in Pregnancy for Pregestational Diabetes

7. Pregnant women with type 1 or type 2 diabetes

should:

a) Receive an individualized insulin regimen and

glycemic targets typically using intensive insulin

therapy [Grade A, Level 1B for type 1; Grade A, Level 1 for type 2]

b) Strive for target glucose values [Grade D consensus]:

• Fasting PG below 5.3 mmol/L

• 1h postprandial below 7.8 mmol/L

Considerations for the CDA Adopting the IADPSG Thresholds

• How can we select an odds ratio threshold in the

absence of a true threshold in the data?

• What is the impact on the patient and workload of

increasing the prevalence of GDM?

• Do we have sufficient evidence with respect to

treatment benefit at the various thresholds to make

an informed decision?

• In the absence of clear benefit, should the diagnostic

criteria be changed from 2008?

2013 CDA Diagnostic Criteria for GDM

PREFERRED APPROACH (2 steps)

1. 50 gram glucose challenge test

2. 75 gram oral glucose tolerance test

– Using thresholds of OR 2.0

ALTERNATIVE APPROACH (1 step)

1. 75 gram oral glucose tolerance test

– Using thresholds of OR 1.75

Recommendation 18: Diagnosis of GDM

18.The preferred approach for the screening and

diagnosis of GDM is the following [Grade D, Consensus]:

a) Screening for GDM should be conducted using the 50 g

glucose challenge test (GCT) administered in the non-

fasting state with plasma glucose measured one hour later

[Grade D, Level 4]. A plasma glucose value ≥7.8 mmol/L at

one hour will be considered a positive screen and will be

an indication to proceed to the 75 gram OGTT [Grade C, Level

2]. A plasma glucose value >11.1 mmol/L can be

considered to be diagnostic of gestational diabetes and

does not require a 75 gram OGTT for confirmation [Grade C,

Level 3].

Recommendation 18: Diagnosis of GDM (continued)

b) If the GCT screen is positive, a 75 gram OGTT

should be performed as the diagnostic test for

GDM using the following criteria: >1 of the

following values: – Fasting >5.3 mmol/L,

– 1h >10.6 mmol/L,

– 2h >9.0 mmol/L [Grade B, Level 1]

Recommendation 19: Diagnosis of GDM

19.An alternative approach that may be used to screen

and diagnose GDM is the one-step approach [Grade D,

Consensus]:

a) A 75 gram OGTT should be performed (with no

prior screening 50g GCT) as the diagnostic test for

GDM using the following criteria [Grade D, Consensus]:

≥1 of the following values: – Fasting > 5.1 mmol/L, – 1h > 10.0 mmol/L, – 2h > 8.5 mmol/L [Grade B, Level 1 (4)]

GDM: Glycemic Management During Pregnancy

• Perform SMBG, both fasting and postprandially• Glycemic Targets during pregnancy:

• Receive nutrition counseling– Moderate carbohydrate restriction: 3 meals + 3 snacks – Targets not met within 2 weeks start insulin – Avoid hypocaloric diet weight loss + ketosis

Target glucose values

Fasting PG <5.3 mmol/L

1h postprandial PG <7.8 mmol/L

2h postprandial PG <6.7 mmol/L

What About Insulin Analogues and Oral Agents Among Patients with GDM?

• May use rapid-acting analog insulin for postprandial

glucose control – no difference in perinatal outcomes

• May use glyburide or metformin for women who

are non-adherent to or who refuse insulin– Likely safe BUT it is OFF-Label no long-term data, need

discussion with patient

GDM: Glycemic Management During Labour and Delivery

• Keep maternal blood glucose l between 4.0 and 7.0

mmol/L reduce risk of neonatal hypoglycemia

• Women should receive adequate glucose during

labour in order to meet the high energy requirements

Postpartum GDM Management Checklist

1. Encourage Breastfeeding

2. 75g OGTT between 6 weeks - 6 months

postpartum to detect prediabetes or diabetes

3. Discuss increased long-term risk of diabetes –
