Early Investigation of Glucose Monitoring After Gestational Diabetes Pilot (NCT06184373)

Early Investigation of Glucose Monitoring After Gestational Diabetes (ENGAGED): Utility and Acceptability of Continuous Glucose Monitoring in the Early Postpartum Period After Gestational Diabetes Mellitus

๐ŸŸข Recruiting Interventional Protocol ๐Ÿ“Š Observational Clinical Research Sponsor: Ohio State University

๐Ÿฉบ Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)

One third of women with gestational diabetes (GDM), diabetes diagnosed during pregnancy, have abnormal glucose levels within 3 years after pregnancy, but follow up is low. Continuous glucose monitors (CGM), a small sensor inserted under the skin, may be able to screen women with GDM for diabetes risk. The investigators will ask postpartum women to use CGM at 6-8 weeks postpartum and answer surveys about quality of life after wearing the CGM. The investigators will collect data on blood glucose trends for future studies if participants find CGM use acceptable. The investigators hope to learn if CGM could improve postpartum follow up experiences for people with recent GDM.
