Glucose Monitoring for A1GDM
Objective: The primary outcome is glucose value of the neonate at birth. Secondary
Objectives: Determine rates of insulin requirements within different monitoring techniques. Determine if there is a difference in neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) admission within different monitoring techniques. Determine neonatal blood glucose concentrations at 24 hours of life, number of glucose treatments, and neonatal hyperbilirubinemia. Secondary characteristics to be viewed for each diagnosis; BMI, race, age, and parity.
• All female patients of reproductive age (menarche-menopause: 18-51 years) who have the diagnosis diet controlled GDM
• Patient with singleton gestation presenting in labor or for induction
• Patients who had good glucose control and were A1GDM. Good Control;
‣ \- Patient with overall outpatient glucose average of less than 100
⁃ \- No evidence of fetopathy, large for gestational age or polyhydramnios.
⁃ \- Hgb A1c \<5.7
