ABSTRACT
RESEARCH QUESTION Are there differences in the frequency of gestational diabetes between women of self-defined refugee status (SDRS), immigrant women, and women born in Germany? Does the perinatal data of women with gestational diabetes (GDM) differ depending on the migration status? METHOD:
For the Pregnancy and Obstetric Care for Refugees (ProRef) study between June 2020 and April 2022, data was collected with the Migrant Friendly Maternity Care Questionnaire (MFMCQ) among women on the postpartum ward in three perinatal centers in Berlin. The data concerning GDM was statistically analyzed.RESULTS:
Women of SDRS were tested for GDM (3.2%, p=0.0025) significantly less often than immigrant women (1.4%) or women born in Germany (0.6%). The rate of GDM was higher among immigrant women (19.6%, p=0.001) than among women born in Germany (15.0%) and women of SDRS (14.1%). The rate of GDM varied depending on the country of origin. Vietnam (OR 3.41) and Turkey (OR 2.18) as countries of origin, corrected for age and body mass index, increased the chance of gestational diabetes. The perinatal outcome data among women with GDM did not differ depending on the migration status.CONCLUSION:
As women of SDRS are tested for GDM less frequently, this potentially suggests a supply gap in the health care system. However, the perinatal outcome data does not differ for women of SDRS.
