Technology-supported lifestyle interventions to improve maternal-fetal outcomes in women with gestational diabetes mellitus: A meta-analysis

摘要

Background: The increasing incidence of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a global health problem. Lifestyle interventions have been recognized as effective measures to enhance maternal and child health. Traditional education approaches, personalized consultation and home visits to promote change in patients' lifestyle are limited by cost, lack of resources and inability to provide broad coverage. The increased use of technological approaches can cross these barriers.
