Abstract

Background: Prevalence of diabetes in pregnancy in Malaysia is increasing and it is associated with adverse outcomes. While maternal complications are well studied, there are limited data on fetal outcomes. This study aims to identify the the outcomes of children exposed to maternal diabetes in Kuantan. Method: A study was conducted in 2024 involving 200 children aged 18 to 60 months whose mothers had diabetes during pregnancy. The children were purposely selected from eleven health clinics in Kuantan, Pahang. The result illustrates low incidence of adverse outcomes among study population with a relatively good control of maternal diabetes while highlighting areas of concern, particularly in neonatal jaundice and developmental delays.
