Syndrome of infant of mother with gestational diabetes - what does this mean
Syndrome of infant of mother with gestational diabetes occurs when a mother has high blood sugar levels during pregnancy, which can cause the baby to grow larger than normal and be at risk for birth complications, such as low blood sugar and difficulty breathing. this can also lead to long-term health problems for the baby, such as obesity, type 2 diabetes, and heart disease.
What happens during the disease - syndrome of infant of mother with gestational diabetes
The pathogenesis of syndrome of infant of mother with gestational diabetes is related to the mother's elevated blood sugar levels during pregnancy. when the mother has high levels of glucose, it is passed to the fetus through the placenta, which causes the baby to produce more insulin to try to regulate the glucose. this can lead to the baby having too much insulin, resulting in low blood sugar levels, rapid weight gain and an overgrowth of certain organs. it can also result in other complications, such as respiratory distress syndrome, hypoglycemia, and jaundice.
