GDM glycaemic telemonitoring compared to patients with classic glycaemic monitoring by diary was not inferior in terms of maternal, fœtal, and neonatal complications. Neonatal hypoglycaemia, a life-threatening event, was significantly reduced despite the observation of more neonatal jaundice cases.
