A Systematic Review But in reality the most relevant in relation to life experiences of women with this diagnosis and their cognitions, is that in general patients focus their thoughts, behaviors and motivation, around changes in their lifestyles to overcome the pathology and to prevent future problems for them and their babies, not only during the gestation period but also after childbirth. V. C onclusions From this systematic review, firstly, it was observed that immediately after diagnosis women are invaded by a series of ruminations and thoughts that denote the level of concern in your belief system. Among the most recurrent ideas find “considering that this pathology will be irreversible, from now on Later I will have a chronic affectation, I will have to use insulin for life” and others. There are also ideas related to the fact that the pregnancy will not come to term and even that her life is in danger and of your baby. Likewise, many consider that the pathology they are suffering from is due to the fact that they did not take the necessary care in relation to the diet before pregnancy and are generally blamed for the lifestyle adopted until that moment. Despite this, it is also recorded by many women with GDM, who in general terms do meet the medical prescriptions and adopt the recommendations of officials health to get ahead. From what is observed, the belief system of doctors and nurse’s health personnel in general, notably influences the attitudes and thoughts of these patients. Hence the recommendations and instructions of this personnel are so important to mark habits and practices that lead to the permanent search for the well-being of these patients. In this sense, a very important power of reference is observed on the part of the medical staff. Another element found is that the emergence of beliefs and systems of thought in relation to health and disease originate from of the influence of parents, teachers, communication systems, processes of socialization, among others, which is why social and cultural variables are so telling in the formation of a certain system of beliefs. In addition, research shows that these systems are consolidated, being sometimes difficult to modify. Although the investigation is still incipient, there are records that allow establish that psychosocial variables such as attitude, beliefs, cognitions, motivation, among others exert an influence on related to the appearance of certain pathologies. Similarly, variables of this type, like attitudes, beliefs, cognitions they can be quite promising for the management of many pathologies.
