Pregnant women's friends will have diabetes during pregnancy, which often worries their family members. Many friends want to know what the screening steps for gestational diabetes are. Next, the editor will introduce this aspect in detail, hoping to help everyone.
Firstly, don't eat anything after 10 pm the night before, and don't have breakfast in the morning either. Because blood glucose screening requires fasting.
Then, after completing the registration and payment, you can go to the blood draw window to have your blood drawn. Blood glucose screening will not draw multiple tubes of blood, only one tube will be drawn this time. But different hospitals may have differences.
Thirdly, after drawing blood, go and get a bag of 75 grams of glucose, evenly divided into three cups (disposable cups). Pour about three-quarters of warm water into each cup, dissolve and drink. Be sure to dissolve it before drinking, or you can bring a stirrer in advance and stir it before drinking, because it's really too sweet.
Finally, I waited for an hour before going to draw another tube of blood. Attention: During this period, you can go for routine prenatal check ups, fetal heart rate tests, abdominal circumference measurements, urine routine tests, and so on.
These are the steps of screening for gestational diabetes introduced by the editor. After listening to the editor's introduction, do you have a new understanding of this aspect? Diabetes is a very serious disease, which can cause great harm to the human body. I suggest pregnant women eat more foods with high insulin content, such as balsam pear. And pregnant friends should take good care of their health. Your happiness is the happiness of the whole family, and your sadness is the sadness of the whole family. That's all for the editor's introduction.
