Abstract

Although hyperglycaemia that occurs in pregnancy and resolves after birth has been recognised for over fifty years, worldwide consensus on levels of hyperglycaemic thresholds is incomplete and should be diagnosed as 'gestational diabetes mellitus' (GDM). The involvement of GDM is linked to a number of negative perinatal outcomes, including macrosomia, preterm delivery, pre-eclampsia, and eventually will affect the metabolic wellbeing of the resulting infant in future. A nursing care model for non-communicable disorders in primary hospitals increased therapy compliance, as providers aided by clear guidance and administration flowcharts. Early reports from China find COVID-19 infections among men in Wuhan. Later evidence from 30 jurisdictions outside Hubei demonstrated a drop in male domination, as did young women who were diagnosed with the disease at middle age. The psychological and mental health of mothers with GDM has become a big burden with this pandemic in the COVID-19 world-wide that resulted in serious deaths. However, as far as we know, no study explores the success of nurses or licensed clinical nurses during the SARS CoV-2 pandemic in caring for women with GDM.
