Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Women with gestational diabetes (GDM) diagnosed on 75g- oral glucose tolerance testing (OGTT) performed between 24 to 28 weeks will be offered blinded continuous glucose monitoring (CGM) (iPro) insertion for a week in addition to routine fingerprick testing. They will also record length of time of health care professional visits for the duration of the pregnancy.

The aim of this study is to:
(a) To determine if data provided by a blinded CGM trace of 7 days duration performed during the two week interval following the 24-28 week OGTT in pregnancy can be used for the triage of GDM patients into groups that are either likely or unlikely to require intensification of their clinical care during the remainder of their pregnancy (primary objective).
(b) To compare glycaemic profiles provided by the 24-28 week OGTT, fingerprick glucose readings performed in the week post-OGTT and CGM traces as predictors of utilisation of health care resources.
(c) To propose a set of CGM parameters as therapeutic targets for patients with GDM.
(d) To provide data informing a model of care incorporating CGM technology as part of standard practice.

Statistical methods / analysis
This is a pilot study, aiming for total 100 participants with 50 participants at each site (Werribee Mercy Hospital and Mercy Hospital for Women). Women will be stratified according to risk according to OGTT results and clinical risk factors (3 groups: minor, intermediate, significant risk). CGM data will be analysed for variability and time within range to assess whether it predicts likelihood of treatment or adverse outcomes. Primary outcome of total contact time with healthcare professionals will be used to ascertain potential health economic benefits if CGM data helped rationalise use of HCP time.
