| glucose tolerance test |
A test used for screening for diabetes in pregnancy which involves a random oral glucose tolerance test after a 50 g. glucose (sugar) load. Giving a woman concentrated refined sugar load before testing is not recommended; she can have a physiological reaction to the glucose overload which can mimic diabetes. A Guide to Effective Care in Pregnancy and Childbirth by Enkin et al and published in 1989 indicated the oral GTT should be abandoned.

| glucose tolerance test |
A test that measures carbohydrate (glucose) tolerance (the ability to utilize serum glucose appropriately). In the GTT, the patient's ability to tolerate a standard oral glucose load is evaluated by assessing serum and urine specimens for glucose levels. Blood samples are taken before the glucose is ingested, glucose is given by mouth, and blood (and often, urine) glucose levels are repeated 30 min., 1 hour, 2 hours , and 3 hours after ingestion. **
