Abstract

Background Diabetes is the most prevalent complication in pregnancy, especially in pregnancies induced by In Vitro Fertilization (IVF). Objective The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of an individual education program on gestational diabetes in pregnant women treated with IVF. Methods This was a quasi-experimental clinical trial with a control group. It was performed on 170 women aged 20-45 years, undergoing IVF treatment. Apart from routine cares during pregnancy, the intervention group (85 people) benefited from 6 educational sessions, comprising modify diet, exercise activity, weight control, and daily habits. Demographic forms and three questionnaires, including the nutritional and lifestyle questionnaire, the 24-hour dietary recall questionnaire, and the physical activity questionnaire were completed by the subjects before and after the intervention. The data related to the lifestyle questionnaire, as well as the demographic and midwifery information were analyzed by inferential (logistic regression), and descriptive statistics; the 24-h dietary recall questionnaire’s data were analyzed using Nutrition 4. Findings The statistical analysis of the two studied groups revealed no significant difference in the Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) reduction between the intervention (8.2%) and control (20%) groups (P=0.23). Conclusion Although the individual training and lifestyle modification was not effective on the prevalence of GDM in pregnant women treated with IVF, this program combined with other practical protocols can be used to treat and prevent GDM.
