Considerations for the CDA Adopting the IADPSG Thresholds •
How can we select an odds ratio threshold in the absence of a true threshold in the data?
•
What is the impact on the patient and workload of increasing the prevalence of GDM?
•
Do we have sufficient evidence with respect to treatment benefit at the various thresholds to make an informed decision?
•
In the absence of clear benefit, should the diagnostic criteria be changed from 2008?

Recommendations 16-17: Diagnosis of GDM 16. All pregnant women should be screened for GDM at 24-28 weeks of gestation [Grade C, Level 3]. 17. If there is a high risk of GDM based on multiple clinical factors, screening should be offered at any stage in the pregnancy [Grade D, Consensus]. If the initial screening is performed before 24 weeks of gestation and is negative, rescreen between 24-28 weeks of gestation. (see next slide)

Recommendation 18: Diagnosis of GDM 18. The preferred approach for the screening and diagnosis of GDM is the following [Grade D, Consensus]: a) Screening for GDM should be conducted using the 50 g glucose challenge test (GCT) administered in the nonfasting state with plasma glucose measured one hour later 2013 [Grade D, Level 4]. A plasma glucose value â&#x2030;Ľ7.8 mmol/L at one hour will be considered a positive screen and will be an indication to proceed to the 75 gram OGTT [Grade C, Level 2]. A plasma glucose value >11.1 mmol/L can be considered to be diagnostic of gestational diabetes and does not require a 75 gram OGTT for confirmation [Grade C, Level 3]. guidelines.diabetes.ca | 1-800-BANTING (226-8464) | diabetes.ca Copyright Š 2013 Canadian Diabetes Association
Recommendation 18: Diagnosis of GDM (continued) b) If the GCT screen is positive, a 75 gram OGTT should be performed as the diagnostic test for GDM using the following criteria: >1 of the following values: 2013
–
Fasting >5.3 mmol/L,
–
1h >10.6 mmol/L,
–
2h >9.0 mmol/L [Grade B, Level 1]

Recommendation 19: Diagnosis of GDM 19. An alternative approach that may be used to screen and diagnose GDM is the one-step approach [Grade D, Consensus]:
a) A 75 gram OGTT should be performed (with no prior screening 50g GCT) as the diagnostic test for 2013 GDM using the following criteria [Grade D, Consensus]: ≥1 of the following values: – Fasting > 5.1 mmol/L, – 1h > 10.0 mmol/L, – 2h > 8.5 mmol/L [Grade B, Level 1 (4)]

What About Insulin Analogues and Oral Agents Among Patients with GDM? •
May use rapid-acting analog insulin for postprandial glucose control – no difference in perinatal outcomes
•
May use glyburide or metformin for women who are non-adherent to or who refuse insulin –
Likely safe BUT it is OFF-Label no long-term data, need discussion with patient

Recommendation 22 and 24: Management During Pregnancy (GDM) 22. If women with GDM do not achieve glycemic targets within 2 weeks from nutritional therapy alone, insulin therapy should be initiated [Grade D, Consensus]. 23. Insulin therapy in the form of multiple injections should be used [Grade A, Level 1]. 24. Rapid-acting bolus analog insulin may be used over regular insulin for postprandial glucose control 2013 although perinatal outcomes are similar [Grade B, Level 2]. guidelines.diabetes.ca | 1-800-BANTING (226-8464) | diabetes.ca Copyright Š 2013 Canadian Diabetes Association
Recommendation 25: Management During Pregnancy (GDM) 25.
