Predicting Dysglycemia in Individuals With Gestational Diabetes Immediately Postpartum Using Continuous Glucose Monitoring
Sponsor: University of Manitoba
Summary
Gestational diabetes is one of the most common medical disorders in pregnancy and is a major risk factor for the postpartum development of dysglycemia. Despite the high risk of developing dysglycemia, 50-80% of women with gestational diabetes are not receiving testing within a year postpartum. The investigators will conduct a prospective cohort study to examine the use of continuous glucose monitoring immediately postpartum to estimate the risk of maternal dysglycemia postpartum.
