Clinical Trial Summary

Diabetes mellitus (DM) affects roughly 8% of pregnancies and is associated with significant perinatal and maternal morbidity. Current obstetric practice is complicated by the emergence of the SARS-COV-2 pandemic, resulting in morbidity and mortality secondary to complications of COVID-19. Care coordination among the teams caring for women admitted for antepartum, intrapartum, and postpartum care with suspected or confirmed COVID-19 is required to conserve PPE and minimize staff exposure. The investigators propose a pilot proof of concept randomized study to evaluate the utility of Dexcom-G6 continuous glucose monitors for assessment of glycemic control in pregnant and postpartum women with insulin-requiring diabetes mellitus during hospitalizations, as a proof of concept in the efforts to reduce the number of point of care glucose tests needed, reduce staff exposure, and conserve PPE use.
