Abstract

Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) is rising rapidly and has adverse impacts on
maternal and child’s health status. Objectives: To determine characteristics of pregnant
women with GDM visited Hanoi Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital. Methodology:
A cross-sectional study with 115 pregnant women visited Hanoi Obstetrics Hospital
interviewed. Results: The average age of GDM pregnant women was 30.6 ± 4.1 (yrs),
the percentage of women with aged from 25-35 was 83.5% (n=96). Before pregnancy,
the prevalence of overweight (BMI≥23) was 20.1% (n=23), the prevalence of chronic
energy deficiency (BMI<18.5) was 14.7% (n=17). There was 39.1% (n=45) of GDM
women in the first pregnancy and 61.9% (n=70) GDM women in the second pregnancy. The prevalence of GDM pregnant women having physical excercise at least once a
week was 19.1%. Conclusion: GDM was prevalent among the young age (25-35 years
old), even in women without overweight, and lack of physical activity. There is a need
to conduct nutritional education and communication activities among women of reproductive age for GDM prevention and management.
