It presents appropriate nursing assessment; interventions and strategies for medical nutrition therapy, insulin therapy, use of oral antidiabetes medications and exercise; and evaluation and impact of vascular disease in pregnancy. It also describes the nurse's role as patient advocate and coordinator of the multidisciplinary team."--Publisher's description.
