Optimal timing for postprandial glucose measurement in pregnant women with diabetes and a non-diabetic pregnant population evaluated by the Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (CGMS®)

Objective: Using the Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (CGMS®; Medtronic Minimed) for a group of pregnant women with and without glucose intolerance, we attempted to answer the following questions: (1) when does the physiological peak of postprandial glucose occur?; (2) do non-diabetic pregnant women and pregnant women with diabetes have different postprandial glucose profiles?; and (3) what is the optimal time for postprandial glucose measurement rated according to clinical outcome?

Methods: We included 53 pregnant women in our study...

Keywords: Continuous Glucose Monitoring System (CGMS), continuous glucose monitoring profile, Fetal outcome, gestational diabetes, self-monitoring of blood glucose

Uterine activity: implications for the condition of the fetus

Aim: The aim of this review is to provide more insight in the fetal mechanisms as a response to uterine contractions and to emphasize the importance of correct assessment of uterine activity (UA) patterns during labor.

Study results: UA causes a decreased flow through the uterine artery...
