    The study systematically reviewed randomized controlled trials on the effect of exercise in preventing gestational diabetes in obese and overweight pregnant women. It found that exercise was associated with a 24% decreased risk of developing gestational diabetes compared to no exercise. The research examined groups that either received prenatal care plus exercise or just prenatal care. The study recommends physical activity and lifestyle changes in addition to other interventions to further reduce gestational diabetes risk in obese pregnant women.

    I. What is the significance of the research article you have chosen to your Related
    Learning Experience?

    Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a common condition that occurs among


    pregnant women. Moreover, it is known as a disorder that affects carbohydrate and
    glucose metabolism and is usually diagnosed during pregnancy. Gestational diabetes
    mellitus (GDM) is a result of an increase of insulin resistance caused by physiological,
    endocrine and metabolic changes during pregnancy to continuously sustain the nutrient
    and oxygen necessities of the fetus. The prevalence of this condition is increasing
    worldwide and can cause the development of type two diabetes among women.
    Furthermore, GDM can cause maternal and perinatal complications such as macrosomia,
    increased cesarean section, hypertension, fetal hyperinsulinemia, preterm labor, and
    birth defects. Therefore, the study is significant because it delves on how and why
    exercise decreases the risk of gestational diabetes among obese pregnant women.
    Screening and treatment of GDM are important and is required in order to prevent further
    long-term maternal and perinatal complications.

    II. What are the implications of the findings to your patients?

    The effect of exercise activities on the prevalence of GDM was found to be not
    significant. However, the results of the study showed that there is a 24% decrease of
    occurrence of GDM among the group of pregnant women who performed exercises
    compare to the group who don’t. Moreover, exercise is important not only because it helps
    prevent GDM but also because of its long term health benefits and improves the whole
    pregnancy experience of the mother. Exercise can aid in decreasing blood sugar levels
    and enhance maternal and prenatal outcomes as well as improve physical fitness.
    Additionally, based on one article, ta 25-day structured aerobic exercise can help
    efficiently manage FBG and plasma insulin levels. Furthermore, the research observed
    that women with low physical activity in the first 20 weeks of pregnancy are at a higher
    risk of development of GDM compared to those who are physically fit. In conclusion, the
    study recommends that physical activity or exercises should be accompanied with other
    interventions such as a change of lifestyle in order to further decrease the risk of
    gestational diabetes on obese pregnant women.

    III. What interventions/innovation was used or implemented in the reviewed


    study?

    The research systematically examined and reviewed several of articles on the


    effect of exercise on the prevention of gestational diabetes mellitus on obese or
    overweight pregnant women. Furthermore, articles were found by searching PubMed,
    Embase, Cochrane library, Web of Science, Scopus, Proquest and by manually searching
    the reference lists of related articles. Additionally, articles that were retrieved are from the
    period January 1, 2008 to May 30, 2018. The research also observed and compared two
    groups of obese and overweight pregnant women using an inclusion criterion consistent
    of randomized controlled clinical trials. The control group consisted of obese pregnant
    women that undergo prenatal care while the intervention group performed exercise as
    well as routine prenatal care.

    IV. Would this practice change/improve process of patient care? How about
    patient outcomes?
    An increase in physical activity and performing exercises can improve the physical
    well being of a person as well as provide long-term health benefits. Moreover, this
    research would encourage women to exercise as well as change their lifestyle and diet in
    order to decrease the occurrence of gestational diabetes mellitus. By making exercise a
    habit for women, the rate of gestational diabetes mellitus can decrease as well as the
    occurrence of maternal and prenatal complications. Moreover, exercise has a lot of
    benefits aside from weight control such as it helps your body manage blood sugar and
    insulin levels, improves mental health, and lessen the risk of cancer. Additionally, regular
    exercise can during pregnancy have many benefits such improving posture and reducing
    common discomforts such as backaches and fatigue.
    V. Identify a nursing theory related to the article findings and discuss/describe how
    these findings support/contradict to your identified nursing theory

    Dorethy Orem developed the Self-care Deficit Theory in order to enhance the

    quality of nursing care. Furthermore, this theory focuses on the ability of the patient to

    perform self-care which are independent practices that maintains the life, health and well-

    being of an individual. The theory also states that an individual should be responsible for

    their own well-being as well as their family who needs care.

    With this, Orem’s theory is applicable to this study because exercising or

    performing physical activities is also a way of self-care as the patient can independently

    take care of herself for the well-being of her baby. The nurse should prioritize in providing

    the mother with proper prenatal care and educate her on the benefits on exercise on the

    prevention of gestational diabetes mellitus. By promoting self-care, the mother will be able

    to independently take care of her physical and mental well-being, and can prioritize in

    caring for the baby’s health.
