title: [Theory and practice in the care of diabetic pregnancy--a timely concept].
abstract: Perinatal mortality in diabetic pregnancy has decreased markedly over the past 25 years; this reduction in fetal loss can be attributed to a variety of advances. These include technologic advances in obstetrics and pediatrics, as well as greater understanding of the metabolic aberrations occurring in pregnancy complicated by diabetes. Basically it seems convenient to consider the various disorders in cases of diabetes in pregnancy from several points of view: 1. the effect of pregnancy on the maternal diabetes and 2. the effect of maternal diabetes on the pregnancy and especially on the fetus, and from the above results we can consider 3. an actual procedure in the care of diabetic pregnancy. Regarding the necessary criteria in the care of pregnant diabetics neither pregnancy nor delivery will cause any serious problems.
