NCT01875107 · Status: WITHDRAWN · Phase: PHASE4 · Type: INTERVENTIONAL

Last updated 2014-09-12

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Our objective is to assess whether pre-treatment with a fixed dose of insulin, based on weight, given to pregnant patients with gestational or preexisting diabetes receiving betamethasone can provide adequate glycemic control.

Our hypothesis is that pre-treatment with a weight-based calculated insulin dose will help maintain euglycemia for pregnant patients with gestational and preexisting diabetes after steroid administration, and possibly impact length of hospital admission.
