[Newborn infants of diabetic mothers. Clinical study in the period 1980-1985].
An statistical analysis is reported on specific problems of the infant of diabetic mother during the period 1980-1985, with a total of 287 newborns. Complications in this sample are exposed, and significant differences demonstrated in gestational age, fetal distress, hypocalcemia, polycythemia, jaundice, respiratory distress syndrome and associated problems according to clinical type of diabetes mellitus. High percentage of congenital malformations is pointed-out with a predominance of cardiac septal defects. Diabetological control was closer in insulin-dependent group, therefore, its effect has been studied separately. A lower rate of hypoglycemia was found in those under control, while infant of insulin-dependent diabetic mother showed a better compliance between weight and gestational age and a lower rate of respiratory distress syndrome.
