The effect of interdisciplinary and diversified health education combined with personalized nutrition intervention on FPG, 2hPG, SDS, SAS scores and the pregnancy outcomes of gestational diabetes mellitus.

OBJECTIVES

This study aimed to explore the effect of interdisciplinary and diversified health education combined with personalized nutrition intervention on FPG, 2hPG, SDS, SAS scores and pregnancy outcome of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM).

MATERIAL AND METHODS

A total of 180 GDM patients, who were admitted to our hospital between June 2019 and June 2020, were enrolled as the research subjects and randomly divided into two groups: a research group and a control group (n = 90, each). The patients in the control group received routine care while the patients in the research group received interdisciplinary and diversified health education combined with personalized nutrition intervention. The fasting blood-glucose (FPG), two-hour postprandial blood glucose (2hPBG), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1C), SDS, SAS scores, and pregnancy outcome of the two groups of pregnant women were analyzed and compared.

RESULTS

The differences in the levels of FBG, 2hPBG and HbA1C between the two groups before nursing were not statistically significant. After nursing, the levels of FBG, 2hPBG, and HbA1C of the two groups of patients decreased, and the differences in each group before and after intervention were statistically significant. These indexes were lower in the research group than in the control group, the differences being statistically significant. There were no significant differences between the two groups in SAS and SDS scores before nursing, but there were statistically significant differences after nursing. The incidence of unfavorable pregnancy outcome was lower in the research group (8.89%) than in the control group (14.44%), but the difference was not statistically significant (p > 0.05).

CONCLUSIONS

Interdisciplinary and diversified health education combined with personalized nutrition intervention can effectively reduce FPG, 2hPG, SDS, and SAS scores in GDM women.
