Summary

This new feasibility pilot study aims to refine the design and protocols for a larger trial that will investigate the potential benefits of early oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) screening in a population traditionally defined as low-risk for development of gestational diabetes. The study will evaluate its potential effectiveness in reducing the risks of neonatal morbidity/mortality and obstetric complications. Additionally, a machine learning algorithm to predict gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) risk based on routinely obtained clinical information at pregnancy booking, and minimally invasive methods, such as continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) and gingival crevicular fluid (GCF) sampling, are being explored to predict the risk of hyperglycaemia. This study aims to investigate the utility of early pregnancy screening to enable timely detection and management of early gestational diabetes development in a low-risk population, ultimately promoting better health outcomes for mothers and their babies.

Conditions

  • Glucose Intolerance During Pregnancy

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Early OGTT Results Revealed

Early pregnancy screening with a three-time point (fasting, 1h, 2h) 75g oral glucose tolerance test before 16 weeks' gestation with plasma glucose results revealed to the patient and clinician for appropriate management of any diabetes (gestational and type 2, if diagnosed) from early pregnancy onwards.
