About

Saudi Arabia has been named by the International Diabetes Federation as among the top ten countries with highest prevalence of diabetes. Women are said to have overall prevalence twice that for men. With high birth rate in the country we decided to look at the impact of diabetic pregnancies on their off-springs

Full description

Diabetics are followed regularly in diabetic outpatient clinics where dietary and medical management are offered. Diabetic pregnancies are managed by a team consisting of diabetologist, obstetrician, feto-maternal obstetrician and dietician.

Management of these pregnancies depends on whether these women have pre-gestational or gestational diabetes. Very few diabetic women have exposure to preconceptual advice. For this reason we opted to find out the outcome of infants of diabetic mothers compared to those mothers who are essentially normal with no associated medical or obstetric disorders. Equally we wanted to see if there are differences in the outcome of infants born to pre-gestational and gestational diabetic mothers.
