Continuous Glucose Monitoring for Various Degrees of Glucose Intolerance

September 19, 2022 updated by: Ohio State University

The Use of Continuous Glucose Monitors Among Women With Various Degrees of Glucose Intolerance: An Observational Cohort Study

Diabetes mellitus affects roughly 8% of pregnancies but is associated with significant perinatal and maternal morbidity, with 6% of pregnancies affected by gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). Best practice guidelines recommend universal screening for gestational diabetes mellitus between 24-28 weeks of pregnancy in all women who do not have a diagnosis of pre-gestational diabetes mellitus. Among high-risk populations, performing an early diabetes screen is suggested at the initiation of prenatal care to evaluate for pre-gestational diabetes mellitus. Prior studies have demonstrated a difference in perinatal outcomes by comparing women with negative screening tests to those who fail a screen but pass a diagnostic test and those who are ultimately diagnosed with GDM. The investigators aim to use continuous glucose monitoring systems to study glycemic control in the early third trimester to further elucidate the differences between pregnant women with euglycemia, glucose intolerance, and GDM.

Study Overview

Status

Status

Indicates the current recruitment status or the expanded access status.

Conditions

Conditions

The disease, disorder, syndrome, illness, or injury that is being studied. On ClinicalTrials.gov, conditions may also include other health-related issues, such as lifespan, quality of life, and health risks.

Intervention / Treatment

Intervention / Treatment

A process or action that is the focus of a clinical study. Interventions include drugs, medical devices, procedures, vaccines, and other products that are either investigational or already available. Interventions can also include noninvasive approaches, such as education or modifying diet and exercise.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Eligibility Criteria

Eligibility Criteria

The key requirements that people who want to participate in a clinical study must meet or the characteristics they must have. Eligibility criteria consist of both inclusion criteria (which are required for a person to participate in the study) and exclusion criteria (which prevent a person from participating). Types of eligibility criteria include whether a study accepts healthy volunteers, has age or age group requirements, or is limited by sex.

Ages Eligible for Study

18 years to 45 years (Adult)

Accepts Healthy Volunteers

No

Genders Eligible for Study

Female

Sampling Method

Non-Probability Sample

Study Population

Women ages 18-45 living in central Ohio living with or without gestational diabetes mellitus

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Age 18-45 years
  • Women with a viable singleton or twin intrauterine pregnancy between 24 0/7 and 31 6/7 weeks gestation based on the best obstetric estimate by ACOG criteria
  • Planning to deliver at OSU Wexner Medical Center
  • Able to understand the study, and having understood, provide written informed consent in English

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Abnormal early 50g GCT screen, thereby necessitating 100g OGTT at 24-28 weeks
  • Known pregestational diabetes (type 1, type 2, MODY)
  • 50g GCT >200 mg/dl leading to GDM diagnosis without the performance of 3hr 100g GTT
  • Abnormal obstetrical ultrasound suspicious for major congenital abnormality
  • Known or suspected fetal aneuploidy (by either CVS, amniocentesis, or cell-free DNA)
  • Participation in another trial that may influence the primary outcome, without prior approval
  • Participation in this trial in a prior pregnancy
  • Higher order pregnancy

What is the study measuring?

Primary Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, the planned outcome measure that is the most important for evaluating the effect of an intervention/treatment. Most clinical studies have one primary outcome measure, but some have more than one.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Changes in glycemic control over late gestation as measured by A1c
Time Frame: 9 months
Assessed by changes in glycemic control over late gestation as measured by HbA1c at the time of enrollment and delivery
9 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Secondary Outcome Measures

In a clinical study's protocol, a planned outcome measure that is not as important as the primary outcome measure for evaluating the effect of an intervention but is still of interest. Most clinical studies have more than one secondary outcome measure.
Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
The number of neonatal hypoglycemic episodes
Time Frame: 1 week
Assessed by requirement of neonatal antidiabetic care measured in the number of hypoglycemic episode requiring IV dextrose treatment
1 week

For clinical studies with more than one primary outcome measure with different completion dates, this term refers to the date on which data collection is completed for all the primary outcome measures. The "anticipated" primary completion date is the date that the researchers think will be the primary completion date for the study.
