Observation on the Effect of Individualized Nutrition Combined with Exercise Therapy for Pregnant Women with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus

Abstract

Objective: To analyze the effect of individualized nutrition combined with exercise therapy for pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus. Methods: From March 2021 to March 2023, 100 pregnant women with gestational diabetes in our hospital were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group (50 cases in each group). The control group received routine nursing care, and the observation group received individualized nutrition and exercise therapy, and the intervention effects of the two groups were compared. Results: The fasting, 2-hour postprandial blood glucose, and glycosylated hemoglobin of the observation group were lower than those of the control group; the weight gain of each time period during pregnancy was lower than that of the control group; the incidence of adverse pregnancy events was lower than that of the control group; the quality-of-life score was higher than that of the control group (P < 0.05). Conclusion: Among pregnant women with gestational diabetes, individualized nutrition, and exercise therapy intervention can improve their blood sugar indicators, help control their weight during pregnancy, prevent adverse pregnancy events, and significantly improve their quality of life.
