Brief Summary

Background: Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM), GDM is the first time of gestational impaired glucose tolerance in pregnant women. It is the most common complication disease in women of childbearing age. It is associated with the high risk of adverse health outcomes for both mothers and offsprings and the variety of metabolic disease, including type 2 diabetes, etc. As for the epidemiology data of GDM in China, the prevalence is around 18% based on the criteria from the International Association of Diabetes in Pregnancy Study Groups, IADPSG. Several studies claimed that the diabetes-specific formula improved glycemic control in type 2 diabetes patients. However, the effects of medical nutrition therapy combined with the diabetes-specific formula in pregnant women with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) are unclear. Objective: This study examines whether medical nutrition therapy combined with Enteral Nutrition Suspension (TFP-DM, Diason 0.75 kcal/ml) in GDM women could improve the glycemic control and the pregnancy outcomes.

Study Arms (2)

TPF-DM Combined with Medical Nutrition Therapy Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants in the experimental group will be provided with an individualized dietary, nutrition recommendation and the additional Enteral Nutrition Suspension (TFP-DM, Diason 0.75 kcal/ml). Participants are required to schedule the first follow-up visit one week after receiving the individualized recommendations. Afterward, the regularly scheduled follow-up visit will be scheduled every two to four weeks.

Dietary Supplement: Enteral Nutrition Suspension (TFP-DM)

Medical Nutrition Therapy Intervention

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Based on the standard care, Participants will receive an individualized dietary, nutrition recommendations with the application of food exchange porting. Participants are required to schedule the first follow-up visit one week after receiving the individualized recommendations. Afterward, the regularly scheduled follow-up visit will be scheduled every two to four weeks.

Behavioral: Medical Nutrition Therpay

Interventions

Individualized dietary and lifestyle intervention combined with the recommendation of Enteral Nutrition Suspension (TPF-DM, Diason 0.75 kcal/ml)
