One Step Method

“for risk women”


Glucose Load

  • 75 g (2hr OGTT)

Diagnostic criteria

New cards

Two Step Method (Step 1)

Glucose Load

  • 50g (non fasting 1-h OGTT)

Diagnostic criteria

  • If the 1-h PG is ≥ 140 mg/dL, proceed to Step 2

  • Some use the ≥ 130 or 135 mg/dL cutoff which has greater sensitivity
