NCT05553275

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess whether permissive intrapartum glycemic control compared to usual care would lead to similar rate of neonatal hypoglycemia among people with diabetes.

Interventions

Usual CarePROCEDURE

Blood sugar evaluation (accuchecks) every four hours in latent labor and every 2 hours in active labor.Participants will be routinely managed with maintenance fluids of lactated ringers during latent labor and lactated ringers with dextrose 5% in active labor. Blood sugars of more than 110 mg/dl at any time point in labor will be treated with an insulin drip as follows: Regular insulin (100 units) in 100cc of normal saline, with Lactated Ringers with 5% dextrose at 125cc/hour. If blood sugar 111-140, insulin drip at 1 unit/hour will be given and continued if blood sugar is 111-140.If blood sugar is 141-180, then drip will be changed to to 1.5 unit/hour and if blood sugar is 181-220, drip will be changed to 2.0 units/hour and MD will be called if blood sugar is more than 221 mg/dl

If blood sugar is 201-220, then drip will be changed to 1.5 units/hour. If blood sugar is 221 - 250, then drip will be changed to 2.0 units/hour and if blood sugar is more than 251 MD will be called.
