Abstract

We designed a safe minimalistic model of GDM management which could be conveniently implemented in resource-constrained settings in developing countries. Pregnancy outcomes in the normal controls and the treated GDM patients were similar. We showed that, with minimal care delivered in a consistent fashion it was possible to obtain excellent pregnancy outcomes.
