Trial summary

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) affects 10 % of women who receive prenatal care at Instituto Nacional de Perinatología (Mexico, City). Currently, there is clear evidence on the utility of self- monitoring of capillary glucose (SMGC) to evaluate the efficacy of medical-nutrition therapy on glycemic control.

About this study

Official title: Efficacy of Two Schemes of Self-monitoring Capillary Glucose to Monitor Glycemic Control in Mexican Women With GDM

Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) affects 10 % of women who receive prenatal care at Instituto Nacional de Perinatología (Mexico, City). Currently, there is clear evidence on the utility of self- monitoring of capillary glucose (SMGC) to evaluate the efficacy of medical-nutrition therapy on glycemic control. However, the reports regarding the best pattern of SMGC in terms of frequency and number of determinations per day are limited. The objective of this study is to evaluate the efficacy of two SMGC schemes for monitoring glycemic control in Mexican women with GDM.

Read the detailed description

Currently, the evidence from randomized clinical trials about the most appropriate scheme of SMGC for monitoring the glycemic control among women with GDM is limited. This study was designed to evaluate the efficacy of two different schemes of SMGC in GDM Mexican population, it is an open-label randomized clinical trial including 2 groups: group 1 (SMGC 4 times/day) measured in fasting and 1 hour postprandial of breakfast, lunch and dinner; group 2 (SMGC 2 times/day), measured preprandial and 1 hour postprandial, of breakfast, lunch or dinner, alternating the meal each day, from GDM diagnosis until the resolution of pregnancy. Additionally, determinations of insulin, lipids and glycosylated hemoglobin (HbA1c) will be determinate at enrollment, and between the 30-32 and 36-38 of gestation week. The primary outcome: To compare the proportion of women who achieve glycemic control using SMGC 4 times/day versus SMGC 2 times/day.

Secondary outcome: To compare the risk of new-born large for gestational age, gestational hypertension, preeclampsia, preterm birth, cesarean section, new-born weight, neonatal hypoglycemia, neonatal hyperbilirubinemia and entry to neonatal intensive care between groups. An analysis for intention of treatment will be made according to the recommendations of the CONSORT guidelines.

What is being measured

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

  1. Proportion of women who achieve glycemic control.

    Proportion of women with more than 80% of capillary glucose determination into the following goals: preprandial; 70 to 95 mg/dl and 1 hour post-prandial ≤ 140 mg/dl.

    Measured: from GDM diagnosis to delivery.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing self-monitoring capillary glucose (SMCG) in people with Gestational Diabetes, run by Instituto Nacional de Perinatologia Isidro Espinosa de los Reyes at 1 site in Mexico.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 2 inclusion and 4 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: status not confirmed, as of the sponsor's last update on 28 Dec 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Mexico. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

Results are not available in the source record.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

Contact Enrique Reyes-Muñoz, PhD (+521 5555209900 ext. 307, dr.enriquereyes@gmail.com), or a site near the patient. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Proportion of women who achieve glycemic control. (time frame: from GDM diagnosis to delivery.). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 28 Dec 2021.
