Summary

Among women who experience glucose abnormalities during pregnancy, screening during the postpartum period offers a window of opportunity for early identification of diabetes and prediabetes. The rates of postpartum type 2 diabetes (T2D) screening with an OGTT for women with GDM are not optimal given the majority of women with GDM fail to return for postpartum glucose testing. Continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) systems have been recognized as an ideal method of monitoring glycemic control in diabetic patients. CGM has been used in diabetic patients primarily as a management tool allowing a more acceptable and reliable glucose reading and control than self-monitoring of blood glucose (SMBG). There is a need to improve diabetes testing after childbirth in women who experienced gestational diabetes. This will allow investigators to target their efforts to improve the early diagnosis and treatment of diabetes following GDM. No studies conducted to date have not comprehensively examined whether CGM after delivery can be used in women with a recent history to predict their risk of diabetes. This research study is being done to assess the acceptability, feasibility, and accuracy of using a glucose sensor (also known as a continuous glucose monitor or CGM) after childbirth as a diagnostic test that can help identify women who are at risk of developing diabetes after having gestational diabetes and explore its correlation to the standard postpartum oral glucose tolerance test as well as a HbA1c and fructosamine test.
