Abstract：The prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus(GDM)has increased in recent years,driven by factors such as the universal two-child policy and advanced maternal age.Nurses with a second pregnancy diagnosed with GDM constitute a distinct subgroup.They face compounded pressures from high work intensity,irregular shift work,and pre-existing childcare duties,all of which can undermine adherence to conventional GDM management protocols.In recent years,advances in intelligent health technology have offered new solutions to support self-management in this population.This paper examines the unique challenges faced by nurses with a second pregnancy complicated by GDM in clinical practice.It reviews the current application,advantages,and limitations of intelligent intervention tools for GDM self-management in this specific professional group.It proposes an optimized pathway to inform tailored strategies and provide practical recommendations for enhancing GDM self-management among nurses with a second pregnancy.
