We directed research to explore the insight using imaging element echocardiography modality for analysis of myocardial thickness and septal integrity in GDM patient along with their family history of diabetes. Aim: This study aims to evaluate early cardiac and septal changes caused by gestational diabetes and its association with family history of Diabetes. Methods: It was a cross sectional, prospective study conducted at the Echocardiography Department of “The Children Hospital Lahore”. A sample size of 89 participants with gestational diabetes was studied within the duration of 2 months. SPSS is used for statistical analysis. Results: In this study there were 89 pregnant females that have Gestational Diabetes 77 (86.5%) had a family history of diabetes, while 12 (13.5%) did not. When analyzed with septal thickness category 83.15% female with family history of diabetes exhibit septal hypertrophy and 3.37% were normal. A statistically significant (P = 0.007) association lies between family history of diabetes and septal thickness. EF were normal in majority of cases and it was statistically insignificant (p= 0.691). In the LVDd category, 56.18% of all patients with decreased LVDd had a family history of diabetes statistically significant (p= 0.006). Conclusion: In conclusion, investigation of 89 patients of GDM myocardial thickness and septal integrity has a statistically significant result with family history of diabetes.enFetal echocardiographic analysis of myocardial thickness and septal integrity in gestational diabetic patients and its association with family history of diabetesThesis
