About this study

This is a pilot randomized controlled trial involving a sleep education intervention in women with gestational diabetes to study whether sleep education during pregnancy leads to improvement in glycemic control in women with gestational diabetes and improvement in sleep duration.

Read the detailed description

Patients will be identified from the Maternal-Fetal Medicine office and the Perinatal Assessment Clinic at Magee-Womens Hospital, University of Pittsburgh Medical Center. Patients with gestational diabetes will be recruited following general education regarding gestational diabetes in pregnancy which is universally done for all patients at the time of their diagnosis of gestational diabetes. Eligible subjects will be randomized to two groups (usual care vs. sleep education program).

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Glycemic control

    Proportion of participants achieving glycemic control at study end. Glycemic control defined as greater than 75% of weeks with average fasting blood glucose < 95 mg/dL and 1-hr postprandial blood glucose <140 mg/dL.

    Measured: 3-6 months during pregnancy

  2. Self-reported sleep duration

    Proportion of patients who report sleeping between 7-9 hours per night

    Measured: 3-6 months during pregnancy

Secondary outcomes (7)
  1. Average fasting glucose values

    Measured: 3-6 months during pregnancy

  2. Average postprandial glucose values

    Measured: 3-6 months during pregnancy

  3. Gestational age at delivery

    Measured: Time of delivery

  4. Neonatal birth weight

    Measured: Time of delivery

  5. Indication for delivery

    Medical records will be used to determine whether a patient when into spontaneous labor, had an induction or labor or a recommended delivery by cesarean section. If the patient had an induction or labor or a recommended cesarean delivery, the indication for this recommendation will be recorded.

    Measured: Time of delivery

  6. Route of delivery

    Medical records will be reviewed to determine if the patient had a vaginal delivery or cesarean delivery.

    Measured: Time of delivery

  7. Preeclampsia

    Medical records will be reviewed to determine whether a patient had a diagnosis of preeclampsia prior to delivery.

    Measured: Time of delivery
