1.4 Objectives of the Study

This study aims to track how patients with gestational diabetes' prognosis for

mother and child respond to evidence-based diet nursing.

1.5 Sample

A total of 130 GDM patients who were admitted to their hospital between January

2020 and January 2022 were chosen, with 65 cases in each group, and separated into two

groups based on the therapeutic strategy. Although the observation group received

evidence-based nursing along with diet nursing, the control group received regular

nursing and diet nursing. The two groups' differences in blood glucose index and

intestinal flora before and after the intervention were identified, and compliance behavior,

pregnancy outcomes, and perinatal outcomes were statistically assessed for each group.

1.6 Methodology
The control group received both usual nursing care and diet nursing, and regular

measurements of body weight, blood pressure, and blood glucose were taken to provide

dietary and activity recommendations. According to the doctor's recommendations,

patients who had trouble controlling their blood sugar through diet and exercise were

given insulin therapy. They were also given instructions on how to properly use an

insulin pen.

1.7 Results and Conclusion

Following the intervention, both groups' fasting blood sugar, 2 h postprandial

blood sugar, and HbA1c steadily decreased (P < 0.05). Subsequent comparison of the

groups revealed that the observation group had lower fasting blood glucose, 2 h

postprandial blood glucose, and HbA1c values than the control group (P < 0.05).

Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus, and Bifidobacterium E ratios changed following

intervention. The amount of coli rose over time in both groups (P < 0.05). The ratios of

Bifidobacterium, Lactobacillus, and Bifidobacterium to E.coli were also compared

among the groups. E. coli were greater in the observation group than in the control group

(P < 0.05). The observation group's blood glucose, regular prenatal examination, and diet

management rates were 100.00%, 100.00%, and 95.38%, respectively. These numbers

were higher than the control group's rates of 89.23%, 92.31%, and 84.62%, and the

difference was significant (P < 0.05). The observation group's cesarean section and

pregnant infection rates were 0.00% and 33.85%, respectively. These numbers were

significantly lower than the control group's rates of 6.15% and 60.00% (P > 0.05). In

comparison to the control group's rates of macrosomia, neonatal hypoglycemia, and

neonatal hyperbilirubinemia, which were higher, the observation group's rates were lower
at 1.54%, 3.08%, and 9.23%, respectively. These changes were statistically significant (P

< 0.05). Neonatal asphyxia and fetal malformation rates were 0.00% and 1.54%,

respectively, in the observation group and were not statistically different from 1.54% to

7.69% in the control group (P > 0.05).

In GDM patients, the implementation of evidence-based care along with

nutritional care can enhance gut flora, manage blood sugar, enhance patient compliance

behavior, and improve outcomes for mothers and their unborn children.

1.8 Nursing Implications and Personal Reaction

We are all aware that GDM can have a negative impact on a mother's and child's

health. It is crucial that we understand the fundamental elements of intervention. They

may acquire enough about health topics in health education to widen their knowledge. It's

necessary to evaluate individuals' welfare to lower the possibility of long-term negative

consequences from their experiences. Diet nursing is used in this study as the cornerstone

of evidence-based nursing to treat GDM.

In conclusion, dietary modifications and the use of evidence-based treatments can benefit

GDM patients' intestinal flora, blood glucose control, compliance behavior, and maternal

and fetal outcomes.
