“…These women in the study population who had had children had been pregnant during the time period 1953–94. Since the 1950s, pregnant diabetic women in Denmark have been handled in a uniform way following national guidelines[1, 19, 20].…”

The reported SA frequency of 17.5% (95% CI 15.5-19.9%) in pregnant women with Type 1 DM is higher than previously reported SA rates of 10-12% in Danish nondiabetic women and the SA rate is more than twice the SA rate found in a previous Danish study from a highly specialized obstetrical centre for diabetic women. These data suggest an urgent need for further improvement in the general management of Danish pregnant women with Type 1 DM.

“…These satisfactory results have many explanations, among which are the following principles: (1) centralisation of management by a coordinated team including a diabetologist, an obstetrician and a neonatologist, (2) near normalisation of maternal metabolic control, (3) classification and early detection of diabetes, (4) prophylaxis and treatment of complications and (5) particular attention to all details of obstetrical management, including the time and mode of delivery [1]. During the late 1950s and the early 1960s, a nearly uniform way of handling pregnant diabetic subjects evolved [2,3]. According to this scheme, hospitalization ordinarily takes place 8 weeks before calculated term.…”

The outcome of 223 pregnancies in Type 1 (insulin-dependent) diabetic women managed from 1981 to 1985 in the Centre for Pregnant Diabetics in Copenhagen is presented. There were 17 spontaneous and 9 induced abortions. The latter were all done on medical indications. Among the 201 infants weighing 1000 g or more (including 4 pairs of twins), three died perinatally, 2 with lethal congenital malformations and one was stillborn in the 32nd gestational week. This represents a perinatal mortality rate of 2 percent. Timing and mode of delivery is individualized, but the general scheme is to induce labour around the 38th week of pregnancy. It is emphasized that an increased risk of sudden intrauterine death still exists in late diabetic pregnancy.
