title: [Value of determining fructosamine levels in serum of pregnant patients with diabetes to evaluate the level of compensation for glycemia].
abstract: The results in 16 pregnant women with diabetes mellitus are analysed. All patients were treated with an intensive insulin-therapy at the Voivodeship Clinic for Diabetic Patients in Zabrze. Multipoint glycaemia profiles made by the treated patients as a self control were compared with serum fructosamine and HbAlC concentrations. A significant correlation of fructosamine levels with glycaemia and HbAlC levels was noted. No significant dependence of fructosamine and glycaemia fasting levels, incidence of hyperglycaemia and Schlichtkrull's Mw index was noted. Results suggest, that the fructosamine serum concentration is a useful marker of metabolic compensation in pregnant women with diabetes mellitus. It enables less frequent performance of the daily profiles of glycaemia by the patients.
