NCT05647798

Brief Summary

This is a randomized, parallel, controlled, non-inferiority trial to assess the impact of a tight versus a more liberalized intrapartum glycemic control in gestational diabetic mothers on neonatal glycemia. National guidelines for the management of intrapartum glucose in women with GDM are lacking. This is likely due to the scarcity of high-quality data on the topic.
