Gestational diabetes & diabetes in pregnancy
Maternal Glucose and Neonatal Hypoglycemia in Pregnancy with Type 1 Diabetes: A Continuous Glucose Monitoring Cohort
Study context
- Population
- Women with T1D in pregnancy with CGM data, and their neonates with routine capillary blood glucose measurements
- Participants
- 60 mothers
- Exposure
- Maternal CGM glycaemic metrics vs neonatal hypoglycemia (NH)
- Outcome
- Association between maternal glycaemia and NH (thresholds <2.2 mmol/L and <2.6 mmol/L)
Main finding
As reported in the abstract
Neonates with NH <2.6 mmol/L
25
41.7%
Neonates with NH <2.2 mmol/L
19
31.7%
% TAR associated with NH <2.2 mmol/L, OR
1.047 (1.007-1.087), P = 0.01 (95% CI)
% TIR associated with NH <2.2 mmol/L, OR
0.951 (0.914-0.989), P = 0.01 (95% CI)
Observational data: associations, not effects.
Further findings
Neonatal characteristics with NH <2.2 mmol/L
- Lower gestational age with NH <2.2 mmol/L
- P = 0.019
- Higher proportion exposed to antenatal corticosteroids with NH <2.2 mmol/L
- P = 0.014
- Higher proportion requiring neonatal ICU admission with NH <2.2 mmol/L
- P = 0.009
Neonatal characteristics with NH <2.6 mmol/L
- Similar associations; neonatal ICU admission rates did not reach statistical significance
