Education regarding diabetes management is of utmost importance, especially during pregnancy when there are 2 patients being managed at the same time, a mother and a fetus. The level of education the mother receives affects both patients. The constant reevaluation and change in treatment plans based on those evaluations positively affects the outcomes for each of them. There are a number of complications associated with having uncontrolled diabetes during pregnancy. A diabetes in pregnancy management program can offer education, provide continuous evaluation of management options, decrease hospitalizations for glucose control, and decrease complications associated with uncontrolled diabetes. All programs must have a goal, a benchmark by which to measure themselves. Plans must be formulated using current and acceptable standards of care. Once implemented, there must be ongoing evaluation of outcomes to determine whether goals are being met. With implementation of the appropriate quality tools, programs can learn to formulate their plans, implement them, measure the results, improve outcomes, and sustain themselves.

有关糖尿病管理的教育至关重要，尤其是在怀孕期间，因为有 2 名患者同时接受管理，母亲和胎儿。母亲接受的教育水平会影响两个患者。基于这些评估的治疗计划的不断重新评估和变化会对每个人的结果产生积极影响。怀孕期间患有不受控制的糖尿病会导致许多并发症。妊娠糖尿病管理计划可以提供教育，提供对管理选项的持续评估，减少因血糖控制而住院，并减少与不受控制的糖尿病相关的并发症。所有程序都必须有一个目标，一个衡量自己的基准。必须使用当前和可接受的护理标准制定计划。一旦实施，必须对结果进行持续评估，以确定是否实现了目标。通过实施适当的质量工具，项目可以学习制定计划、实施计划、衡量结果、改进结果和维持自身。
