Overview
Poor glycemic control and increased insulin level may result in increased metabolic demands in the fetus, which secondarily leads to fetal and neonatal complications. Large for gestational age babies, prematurity, respiratory distress syndrome, hyperbilirubinemia, polycythemia, and congenital anomalies, are the most common complications seen in neonates whose mother had GDM during the pregnancy.
Fetal complications
- Poor glycemic control during pregnancy may lead to some fetal complications. Congenital malformations are the most common complications seen in baies of mothers with GDM compared to healthy mothers.[1]
- Maternal hyperglycemia leads to hyperinsulinemia in the fetus, which results in fetal macrosomia.
- Fetal macrosomia results in increased metabolic demand, and this can lead to increased mortality, metabolic acidosis, alterations in fetal iron distribution, increased erythropoiesis and polycythemia.[2][3]
- Stillbirth is another complication of GDM and it can be due to the increased catecholamine release, hypertension, and increased cardiac workload.[4] Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy from increased oxidative stress is another cause of stillbirth in hyperglycemic mothers.[5]
Neonatal complications
Insulin resistance, hyperinsulinemia, and increased metabolic demands, may result in neonatal co-morbidities such as large for gestational age babies, prematurity, respiratory distress syndrome, hyperbilirubinemia, and polycythemia. The table below shows the observed frequency of these co-morbidities.[6]
