DIABETES IN PREGNANCY - GESTATIONAL DIABETES

2010-12-10T16:54:00.000-08:00

Diabetes in pregnancy can be a temporary disorder which needs special attention throughout the pregnancy. As diabetes in pregnancy does increase certain risks to you and the baby, you will be treated by a special management team includes the Neonatologist, Obstetrician, Nurse, Dietitian, Pharmacist and Physician.
Gestational diabetes usually develops after the 25th week of pregnancy but can occur earlier. It results from the effects of hormones produced by the placenta during pregnancy. These hormones can alter the way in which insulin works. Usually, gestational diabetes subsides after delivery. But a woman who has diabetes during pregnancy is more likely to develop diabetes again later in life or during subsequent pregnancies.

Some women are at high risk for developing this condition. The risk factors include:
* Age more than 30 years
* Obesity
* Family history of diabetes
* History of delivering a very big baby (weighing more than 4 kg at birth)
* History of delivering a dead infant or abnormal infant, miscarriages

Some of the health risks are:
* High blood pressure during pregnancy
* Hydramnios ( too much amniotic fluid in the sac surrounding the fetus)
* Infection of the bladder
* Macrosomia (very large baby)
* Birth defects
* Respiratory distress syndrome (RDS)
* Stillbirth ( a baby born with no signs of life)
In view of the health risks involved, it is very important to follow up with your obstetrician continuously throughout your pregnancy.

During Pregnancy
* Very high or very low blood glucose levels may marginally increase the risk of birth defects. So, it is important that you carefully monitor and control your blood glucose.
* You may need to do home monitoring of your blood glucose using a glucometer.
* Your blood glucose can be controlled by diet or insulin. The main goal is to return the blood sugar level to normal and maintain it. For some women, diet alone is not enough to achieve normal blood glucose levels. So, insulin injections are needed.

After Pregnancy
* After birth, your baby may need to be closely monitored in a special nursery and be treated for some conditions such as: Low blood sugar, Low calcium and magnesium levels, Too many red blood cells and Jaundice.
* These conditions are easily treated and are usually not life-threatening.
* Your diabetes will probably disappear after your baby is born, but it is important to do a glucose tolerance test 6 weeks after delivery to confirm that. However, you will have an increased risk of developing Type 2 diabetes later in life.
* To minimise this risk, you should achieve and maintain a suitable body weight, Exercise regularly, See your doctor annually to have your blood sugar checked.

* This is the most important form of treatment. Important aspects of your diet will include:
* Controlling carbohydrate intake
* Reducing fat intake
* Increasing fibre intake

Hypoglycaemia occurs when the blood glucose level is below the normal range and can be harmful or dangerous to you and your baby.
In the early weeks of your pregnancy, you may have more frequent hypos than normal. Also the usual warning symptoms may be different or even absent, and the development of the hypo may be much more rapid than usual.
Be Alert ! Treat Early !
If you think you are 'hypo'
* Check your blood glucose level if a glucometer is available
* Consume some form of glucose such sweets, fruit juice, soft drinks, sugar/honey/syrup.
* Recheck blood glucose after 15 minutes. If unable to check & still having symptoms of hypo
- take another portion of glucose
- if blood glucose is still low or if not feeling better, see doctor
If hypo occurs just before the next meal/ snack, take the meal/snack immediately, otherwise take 1 additional snack to avoid recurrence of hypo.
* Follow your diet plan carefully:
- Do not miss or delay a meal
- Be sure to include all the recommended servings of carbohydrate in your diet
- Eat 1 extra snack if exercising for more than 1 hour.

The signs of hypoglycaemia (low blood sugar) are: Tiredness, Weakness, Nervousness, Trembling or Shaking, Hunger, Rapid Heart Beat, Sweating, Dizziness/Headache, Blurred Vision, Change in Behaviour and Unconsciousness.
You may sometimes not fell some or all of these symptoms.

Breastfeeding
A history of gestational diabetes does not affect your ability to breastfeed. We encourage you to breastfeed because of the nutritional advantages to your baby.
It is usual to experience an increase in appetite whil breastfeeding. An extra 500 calories is usually required to support milk production. Strict weight reduction diets are not recommended during breastfeeding. You should wait till you have stopped breastfeeding, or until your baby has been fully weaned onto solids (usually by 6 months of age) before attempting to lose weight.

A Final Note
It is important that you see a qualified dietitian as soon as you are diagnosed with gestational diabetes, to plan your diet and follow your progress throughout your pregnancy.

PREGNANCY & SMOKING

2009-11-30T23:29:00.000-08:00

How harmful is secondary or passive smoking ?
If a non-smoking woman lives in the atmosphere of her husband's cigarettes smoke, the fetus could receive an indirect effect of the smoke through the mother, although the concentration may be lower than from direct smoking. Thus, it is best for the husband to refrain from smoking in the mother's presence, or to quit the habit. The mother is also advised to keep out of smoke-filled areas.

PREGNANCY....EAT RIGHT BEFORE HAVING A BABY

2009-11-30T23:00:00.000-08:00

Grossly underweight or overweight men and women have reduced fertility and higher miscarriage rates. Pre-conception nutrition care is especially important for the following groups of women.
* Those who are underweight or overweight. Nutrition counselling should ideally be given 3-4 months before the intended time of conception. This will give them time to work towards an acceptable body weight and build up stores of nutrients in their bodies.
* Women with established diabetes or other chronic diseases.
* Women with a history of poor pregnancy outcome.
While planning a pregnancy, it is advisable to stop smoking, drinking alcohol and using drugs inappropriately as important stages in your baby's development start right after conception.

COLORECTAL CANCER SCREENING

2009-06-18T23:08:00.000-07:00

What methods are used to screen for colorectal cancer ?
(1) FOBT - Fecal occult blood test
This test checks for hidden blood in fecal material (stool). It is done Once every year.
Disadvantages - This test fails to detect most polyps and some cancers. False-positive result.

(2) Flexible Sigmoidoscopy
The rectum and lower colon are examined using a lighted instrument called a sigmoidoscope. Precancerous and cancerous growths in the rectum and lower colon can be found and either removed or biopsied. Regular screening with sigmoidoscopy after age 50 can help reduce the death from colorectal cancer. It is done Once every 4 years.
Disadvantages - Any polyps in the upper part of the colon will be missed. There is a small risk of bleeding or tearing/perforation of the lining of the colon.

(3) Colonoscopy
The rectum and entire colon are examined using a lighted instrument called colonoscope.Precancerous and cancerous growths throughout the colon can be found and either removed or biopsied. It is done Once every 2 years.
Disadvantages - Small polyps, nonpolypoid lesions and cancers may not be detected but it is one the most sensitive tests currently available.

(4) Virtual Colonoscopy
Special x-ray equipment is used to produce pictures of the colon and the rectum that can show polyps and other abnormalities. It is done Once every 2 years.
Disadvantages - Small polyps, nonpolypoid lesions and cancers may not be detected.

(5) DCBE - Double contrast barium Enema
A series of x-rays of the entire colon and rectum are taken. DCBE may miss small polyps. It detects about 30 to 50 % of cancers. It is done Once every 2 years.
Disadvantages - Small polyps and cancer may not be detected. False-positive results are possible. During the test, biopsy cannot be performed. Polyps cannot be removed.

(6) DRE - Digital rectal exam
DRE allows examination of only the lower part of the rectum as a routine physical examination.
Disadvantages - Abnormalities only in the lower part of the rectum can be detected.

(7) Stool DNA Test
This test checks your stool for cells that are shed by colon cancers or precancerous polyps.

When should you be screened for colorectal cancer ?
Colorectal cancer is more common in older people, 50 years of age and older. Some people have risk factors that make them to get a colorectal cancer at a young age. Screening should begin earlier in these people.
You should be screened for colorectal cancer at a younger age if:
* you have had colorectal cancer or polyps in the past
* you have a family history of colorectal cancer or polyps
* you have ulcerative colitis or Crohn's disease
* you have a hereditary colon cancer syndrome
* you eat a high-fat, low-fiber diet
If you are in one of these groups, you need to be tested at a young age more than a person who doesn't have risk factors for colorectal cancer.
If you don't have any risk factors for colorectal cancer, you should have your first screening test around 50 years of age.
Any one of the screening programs with DRE at each screening are used, beginning at 50 years of age. There is no minimum age for having a screening colonoscopy.
If you want to do screening, discuss with your doctor what type of screening should you choose ?

TWO HPV VACCINES TO PREVENT CERVICAL CANCER

2009-06-16T23:31:00.000-07:00

2 HPV Vaccines are available.
Gardasil vaccine protects against 4 HPV types - 6, 11, 16 & 18.
Cervarix vaccine protects against 2 HPV types - 16 & 18 that are high-risk viruses.
HPV 6 & 11 can cause Genital Warts.
HPV 16 & 18 can cause Cervical Cancer.
High-risk HPV viruses 31, 35 & 45 can cause Cervical Cancer but there is no vaccine for these types of HPV.
Gardasil can provide protection against HPV 16 for 4 years.
Cervarix can provide protection against HPV 16 & 18 for more than 4 years.
Studies are undergoing whether Booster vaccinations are necessary.
HPVs means Human Papillomaviruses that are a group of more than 100 viruses. Over 30 types can be passed from one person to another through sexual contact.
Because the vaccines will not protect against all infections that cause cervical cancer, it is important for vaccinated women to continue to undergo Pap Smear - cervical cancer screening as is recommended for women who have not been vaccinated.

BREAST CANCER SCREENING

2009-06-16T00:32:00.000-07:00

Breast Cancer Screening
Two tests are commonly used to screen for breast cancer.
(1) Mammogram
(2) Clinical Breast Exam (CBE)
If a lump or other change is found by mammogram or CBE, follow-up tests may be needed.
Other Screening Tests are
(3) MRI (magnetic resonance imaging)
(4) Tissue sampling
3 methods of tissue sampling are
(a) Fine-needle Aspiration
(b) Nipple Aspiration
(c) Ductal Lavage
Who should do Breast Cancer Screening ?
If Girls/Ladies who have a family history of cancer - they should do Self Exam and CBE at 30.
If Women who have a family history of cancer - they should do Mammogram at 36.
If Women who have No family history of cancer - they should do Self Exam, CBE and Mammogram at 40.

WHAT IS CANCER SCREENING.....?

2009-06-16T00:22:00.000-07:00

Screening is looking for Cancer before a Person has any symptoms. This can help find cancer at an early stage.
When abnormal tissue or cancer is found early, it may be easier to treat. By the time, symptoms appear, cancer may have begun to spread.
It is important to remember that your doctor does not think you have cancer if doctor suggests a Screening Test.
Screening tests are given when you have no cancer symptoms. If a screening test result is abnormal, you may need to have more tests done to find out if you have cancer. These are called Diagnostic Tests.

CERVICAL CANCER SCREENING & DIAGNOSIS

2009-06-09T02:11:00.000-07:00

Screening & Diagnosis
Regular screening can prevent cervical cancer by detecting abnormal changes in the cervical cells when they are pre-cancerous and can be treated.
Although the knowledge level of pap smear is high, most women are not screened annually.

It is important to detect the disease when it is in the pre-cancerous stage because with proper treatment at this time the cure rate is almost 100 %. The following are the means of detection.
(1) Pap Smear Test
(2) Colposcopy
(3) Cone Biopsy

When should a Pap Smear be done ?
Once a woman is sexually active and repeated after one year. After that, the pap smear can be done annually.

Pap Smear Result
It will indicate whether the smear is normal or abnormal. If you have an abnormal test result, your doctor will advise further investigations such as Colposcopy and Cone Biopsy.

Colposcopy
The cells and distribution of vessels are seen under a binocular microscope. Abnormal distribution of blood vessels and cells can be detected.
A biopsy is taken if abnormalities are found.

Cone Biopsy
Cone Biopsy is done when the upper limit of possible abnormalities cannot be seen by Colposcopy. In pre-cancerous of the cervix, removal of all the abnormal tissues by cone biopsy can be a form of treatment.
