ABSTRACT
Background: gestational diabetes (GD) is third in frequency according to the American Diabetes Association (ADA) and it affects 7% of pregnancies in Mexico, it is related with greater morbidity and mortality. An early diagnosis can avoid pregnancy problems, however the detection of these cases depends on the presence risk factors. Our objective was to know which are the risk factors more frequent for identifiying GD.
Methods: transverse, descriptive study at an endocrinology service of a Gynecology-Pediatrics Hospital. All case records from patients with GD were reviewed with special attention to risk factors. Pregnancy and previous products morbidity history were reviewed as well.
Results: 166 patient’s files were analyzed aged from 21 to 46 , 59 % corresponded to › 25 years, 29 % with first pregnancy, of these 26 % had history of macro products, and 42 % were diagnosed in the first half of the pregnancy.
Conclusions: the main risk factors related with GD were the age › 25 years and the direct antecedent of DG.
