    Abstract: This study aimed to identify the current situation of interprofessional collaboration for gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) management in Japan including the professionals involved, the collaboration methods employed, and the barriers perceived by nurses and midwives. Methods This nationwide cross‐sectional survey of 1,046 total hospitals facilitating childbirth in Japan used an original 60‐item questionnaire to investigate GDM management practice through interprofessional collaboration. The questionnaire required one responder to be a midwife or nurse who was familiar with the management practices for GDM women in their respective hospitals. Quantitative data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, and framework analysis was conducted for qualitative data collected by open‐ended questions. Results All 308 respondents (response rate 29.4%) were included. The professionals included in interprofessional collaboration were limited, and the only strategy used for interprofessional collaboration by a majority (91.5%) of hospitals was medical charts. There were 50.8% of hospitals that provided postpartum GDM follow‐ups and 54.5% of hospitals that did not engage in external collaboration for GDM management. The barriers to interprofessional collaboration extracted were seven categories and 23 subcategories, which were aligned within the following units of analysis: individual, team, organization, and community. Conclusions This survey shows that interprofessional collaboration, including support for GDM postpartum follow‐up in Japan remains insufficient. Furthermore, nurses and midwives perceive numerous barriers to interprofessional collaboration for continuous GDM management at the individual, team, organizational and community levels.

    Abstract: Despite the benefits of breastfeeding for women with Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) and their infants, breastfeeding is less likely to be performed by this group. This study aimed to examine the current levels of implementation of breastfeeding support to women with GDM in Japan and to clarify barriers to promoting breastfeeding among this population. Methods A 25-item questionnaire was developed by the authors to investigate the current levels of implementation of breastfeeding support for women with GDM provided in hospitals, and to explore barriers for promoting breastfeeding among these women. The questionnaire was sent to all 1046 hospitals facilitating childbirth in Japan. Descriptive statistics were used to analyze the quantitative data, and content analysis was used to analyze qualitative data from the open-ended questions. Results All 296 respondents were included in this study. Regarding breastfeeding support, 95.2% of the respondents provided general information on breastfeeding to GDM women during antenatal midwife consultations. However, the benefits of breastfeeding for preventing type 2 diabetes were addressed by only 48.0%. Likewise, although follow-up services (e.g., telephone support or breastfeeding consultations) were conducted in 88.9% of hospitals, only 50.7% of hospitals informed women that breastfeeding decreases the risk of developing type 2 diabetes after GDM. Regarding barriers, seven categories and 20 subcategories about promoting breastfeeding for women with GDM were extracted and abstracted into the following three themes: Barriers associated with mother and infant, Barriers associated with health professionals, and Organizational barriers. Conclusions In Japan, most hospitals that responded provided general breastfeeding support from the antenatal to postpartum periods. However, the benefits of breastfeeding in terms of preventing the incidence of type 2 diabetes following GDM were insufficiently communicated to women with GDM. Furthermore, there were numerous barriers to promoting breastfeeding among women with GDM.
