Fasting Better for 1-Hr GTT?

The ACOG recommends universal screening for gestational diabetes between 24 and 28 weeks of pregnancy with occasional early screening for those at high risk. Is there an advantage to completing the 1-hour 50 g GTT while fasting? First studied in the 1990s, a new publication further validates the original study results. In this episode we will summarize this new publication soon to be released in Obstetrics & Gynecology (the Green journal) and discuss the paradox/conundrum of GTTs while fasting.
