Item Integrated management of Type 2 diabetes and Gestational diabetes in the context of multi-morbidity in Africa: A systematic review(Ubiquity Press, 2022) Mutabazi, Jean Claude; Norris, Shane; Zarowsky, ChristinaMany adults diagnosed with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) also have other known or unknown comorbid conditions. The rising prevalence of GDM and T2DM within a broader context of multimorbidity can best be addressed through an integrated management response, instead of stand-alone programs targeting specific infectious and/or chronic diseases.Item Integrating gestational diabetes screening and care and Type 2 diabetes mellitus prevention after GDM into community based primary health care in South Africa- mixed method study(Ubiquity Press, 2022) Mutabazi, Jean Claude; Norris, Shane; Zarowsky, ChristinaDespite high gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) prevalence in South Africa (9.1% in 2018), its screening and management are not well integrated into routine primary health care and poorly linked to post-GDM prevention of type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) in South Africa’s fragmented health system. This study explored women’s, health care providers’ and experts’ experiences and perspectives on current and potential integration of GDM screening and prevention of T2DM post-GDM within routine, community-based primary health care (PHC) services in South Africa.
