About this study

Official title: Immediate Postpartum Screening for Diabetes Mellitus in Women With Gestational Diabetes.

Immediate postpartum screening for diabetes mellitus in women with gestational diabetes

The objective of this study is to determine if screening for type 2 diabetes can be done 24 hours after delivery, versus 6-12 weeks postpartum, in recently delivered women having been diagnosed with gestational diabetes requiring medication therapy in the antecedent pregnancy.

Read the detailed description

1 Overview The purpose of the project is to determine if screening for diabetes mellitus, in women with gestational diabetes, can be done 24 hours postpartum versus 6-12 weeks postpartum.

Primary Objective: To compare the results from screening for type 2 diabetes 24 hours postpartum versus 6-12 weeks postpartum.

Design and Project Type Prospective cohort study. Women diagnosed with gestational diabetes and receiving anti-hyperglycemic medication therapy will have testing for type 2 DM done 24 hours after delivery. They will also have routine screening for type 2 DM done at 6-12 weeks postpartum.

Description of Intervention The intervention is early screening for type 2 DM which involves oral intake of a 75-- gram (g) glucose drink and subsequent measurement of fasting, 1- hour, and 2- hour postprandial point of care fingerstick s for blood glucose measurement.

Instruments Fingerstick testing will be done with StatStrip Glucose Hospital Meter (Nova Biomedical). This device is used routinely throughout the hospital and has been validated for use in all patients, including the critically ill. Using point of care testing will allow for accurate results with less pain for the patient, as compared to (fingerstick versus venipuncture).

Being tested
2 hour glucose tolerance test using 75g glucose drink

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • 2 hour glucose tolerance test using 75g glucose drinkDiagnostic test

    Also called fingerstick testing

    intervention is a 2 hour glucose tolerance test. Involves oral intake of a 75g glucose drink followed by using point of care testing. Glucose drink is taken after at least 6 hours of fasting. Fingerstick blood glucose testing done at three time points: fasting, one hour post drink and two hours post drink.

Study groups in NCT03946631
Study groupRoleWhat they receive
Blood Glucose Test - 2hour GTTOnly one arm: intervention group. The intervention is fasting 2 hour glucose tolerance test in the immediate postpartum period. The screening test consists of fingerstick blood glucose testing after a glucose drink. First, a fasting blood glucose finger stick will be performed. Second, the glucose drink is orally ingested containing 75g glucose. The drink is to be orally ingested over 60 seconds. Lastly, fingerstick blood glucose testing is completed at 1 hour post drink and 2 hours post drink.
Receives: Diagnostic Test: 2 hour glucose tolerance test using 75g glucose drink

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Sensitivity of early postpartum overt diabetes screening by 2-hour glucose tolerance testing in postpartum women.

    We will compare the sensitivity of a 2-hour oral glucose tolerance test (2HR OGTT) for the detection of overt diabetes when performed within 48 hours of delivery ("early") among postpartum women previously diagnosed with gestational diabetes requiring treatment. The "early" 2HR OGTT result will be compared to the current standard of care of a 2HR OGTT performed at 6-12 weeks postpartum.

    Measured: 24-48 hours postpartum verses 6-12 weeks postpartum.
