Study Summary
This trial will compare postpartum diabetes screening done before and after delivery to see which is better at detecting diabetes.
Who is the study for?
This trial is for English or Spanish-speaking individuals who were diagnosed with gestational diabetes during pregnancy, are at least 18 years old, and can give informed consent. They must be receiving care at OSU and be immediately postpartum during their delivery hospital stay. Those with a history of gastric bypass or unable to tolerate an OGTT cannot participate.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The DIP trial is testing if doing a glucose tolerance test (OGTT) right after giving birth in the hospital helps more new moms get screened for diabetes compared to waiting for the standard 4-12 weeks after delivery. Participants will either receive this immediate test or follow the usual care plan.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this study involves standard glucose tolerance tests, side effects may include discomfort from fasting before the test, feeling lightheaded or nauseous during or after drinking the glucose solution, and potential bruising from blood draws.
