Article Synopsis
- Various international guidelines for diagnosing gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) have been developed, but they differ widely and lack a consistent definition for glycemia levels, leading to potential misdiagnosis.
- The National Priorities Research Program funded research that concluded the diagnosis of GDM should include graded levels of dysglycemia rather than simply a binary presence or absence of the condition.
- A new diagnostic criterion, called the NPRP criterion, has been proposed, which uses a single numerical summary from the oral glucose tolerance test to categorize women into four levels: normal, impaired, GDM, and high risk GDM, aiming to improve diagnosis accuracy and reduce rates of both under and over-diagnosis.
