Does a continuous glucose monitor help manage gestational diabetes?
Part of Hormones & metabolism, Women’s health & pregnancy clinical trials.
This study compares a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) to standard finger-prick testing for managing gestational diabetes. It aims to see if the CGM can improve blood sugar control and maternal outcomes.

This study compares two ways to check blood sugar during pregnancy in women with gestational diabetes: a small sensor worn on the skin that tracks glucose continuously, versus traditional finger-stick testing. The goal is to see which method helps women manage their blood sugar better and have healthier pregnancies.
This trial uses a continuous glucose monitor (a small sensor placed on the skin) to track blood sugar levels in newborns whose mothers used insulin for gestational diabetes. The goal is to see if this monitoring helps prevent low blood sugar in babies.
This trial tests if using a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) helps manage blood sugar better than finger-stick checks in pregnant women with type 2 diabetes. It aims to see if CGM leads to better sugar control and possibly healthier outcomes for you and your baby.
This trial tests whether using a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) during pregnancy and after delivery helps women with gestational diabetes. It aims to see if the Dexcom G7 can improve health outcomes for both you and your baby.
This trial tests if wearing a continuous glucose monitor during a planned C-section helps track blood sugar levels better. It's for patients without a prior diabetes diagnosis (including gestational diabetes).
This study tests whether using a continuous glucose monitor (a small sensor that checks your blood sugar all day) can improve outcomes for you and your baby during gestational diabetes. It may help you manage your blood sugar more easily and reduce risks.
