Abstract

We evaluated the sensitivity, specificity, positive and negative predictive values of 50 grams glucose challenge test, serum fructosamine and HbA1c levels as screening tests for gestational diabetes mellitus. Forty-two pregnant patients between the 24th and 28th week of their pregnancies. Any combination of these 3 tests gives better results than a single test, but no one of the combinations is superior to the others.
