Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to perform a randomized controlled trial among 180 pregnant women with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) comparing continuous glucose monitor (CGM) use to the standard of care of multiple daily fingerstick glucose monitoring and its impact on large for gestational age infants, maternal glycemic control, patient satisfaction, and additional adverse perinatal outcomes.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

A continuous glucose monitor (CGM) can provide detailed insight into daily glucose fluctuations and individual glucose patterns, and it is advised for patients with type 1 diabetes mellitus and advanced type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). Despite this recommendation, pregnant women are not receiving the same standard of care. It has been studied minimally in pregnant women with T2DM, despite preliminary studies showing improvement in adverse perinatal outcomes and glycemic control among pregnant women with type 1 diabetes. Therefore, there is a paucity of data regarding CGM use among pregnant women with T2DM, and significant potential to reduce the significant multigenerational effects associated with diabetes in pregnancy with this technology.

The study team therefore propose to perform a randomized controlled trial among 180 pregnant women with T2DM comparing CGM use to the standard of care of multiple daily fingerstick glucose monitoring and its impact on large for gestational age infants, maternal glycemic control, patient satisfaction, and additional adverse perinatal outcomes.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

Continuous Glucose Monitoring (CGM)

Patients will be randomized to application of a continuous glucose monitor (CGM). They will apply the device in the clinical setting and be instructed how to download their information onto their smartphones or using the CGM device reader. They will use the CGM for the duration of the pregnancy until delivery.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

Continuous Glucose Monitor

Intervention Type DEVICE

Continuous Glucose Monitor

Fingerstick Glucose Monitoring

Patients will be randomized to checking their blood glucose with fingerstick monitors at time of fasting in the AM, and 2 hours after each meal. This is the standard of care for patients in the pregnancy diabetes clinic.
