Abstract:
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) poses significant risks to maternal and fetal health, necessitating effective management strategies. This paper evaluates the impact of an
interprofessional collaborative approach, leveraging telemedicine and electronic health records (EHRs), on GDM management. The integration of these components can offer
improved patient outcomes, enhanced satisfaction and adherence, efficient resource utilization, and potential cost-effectiveness. However, challenges related to technology
barriers, privacy concerns, reimbursement issues, workflow changes, and interprofessional collaboration must be addressed. Recommendations include stakeholder engagement,
technology infrastructure investment, regulatory alignment, interprofessional education, quality improvement processes, and patient empowerment. Despite challenges, this
integrated approach presents a promising opportunity to transform GDM care delivery,
ensuring comprehensive, coordinated, and continuous care while improving maternal and fetal health outcomes.
