Background: The outbreak of gestational diabetes has a significant increase during 14 recent years. This disease has complications for mother and her baby. Screening is an opportunity for preventing of gestational diabetes it's complications.
Objective: The aim of this research was to determine the most important risk factors of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) in Iran according to the expert's views by Group Analytical Hierarchy Process.
Materials and Methods: In this cross-sectional study, papers related to the prevalence and risk factors of GDM in Iran from 1992-2015 were reviewed. By studying texts and Upto Date databases, 10 risk factors of gestational diabetes were collected. Among these 10 items, the risk factors that have become significant based on studying literature in Iran were selected for analysis. GAHP questionnaire distributed among all experts.
Results: 8 risk factors of gestational diabetes were significant in Iran. The analysis of experts' views showed that "History of GDM or disorder in glucose tolerance in pregnancy" is the most important risk factor for developings GDM (40.7%). The second and third most important risk factors were "History of macrosomia (infant birth (weight > 4.1 Kg)" (20.2%) and" History of diabetes in first degree relatives " (10.7%).
Conclusion: Correct knowledge of prevalence of gestational diabetes and its risk factors is necessary for effective planning. SuggestSuggesting screening based on the importance of these risk factors can reduce the cost and stress in pregnant women. Also, it makes faster patient identifying faster.
