Additional Information |
The American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists (ACOG) recommends that all pregnant women be screened for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM)—whether by patient history, clinical risk factors, or with a 50-gram, one-hour loading test at 24 to 28 weeks of gestation to determine blood glucose levels—and suggests relying on the result of the 100-gram, three-hour oral glucose tolerance test for diagnosis (often referred to as a "two-step" method).2 The American Diabetes Association (ADA)3 released standards that vary from the ACOG recommendations. The ADA recommends a simplified "one-step" approach to the screen and diagnosis of gestational diabetes mellitus with a 75-gram, two-hour glucose tolerance test. The LabCorp test according to the ADA recommendations is Gestational Glucose Tolerance Screening and Diagnostics Test (Two-hour, ADA Recommendations) [101000]. A glucose tolerance screen glucose threshold >139 mg/dL after a 50-gram load identifies approximately 80% of women with gestational diabetes mellitus, while the sensitivity is further increased to approximately 90% by a threshold >129 mg/dL. Perform a diagnostic 100-gram oral glucose tolerance test (102004) on a separate day on women who exceed the chosen threshold on 50-gram screening. |
