Brief

Diabetic pregnant patients are at risk for adverse pregnancy outcomes, including larger than expected fetuses and unplanned operative deliveries, due to elevated blood glucose levels. the one-hour glucola test is currently used to screen pregnant patients for gestational diabetes. This involves ingesting a 50-gram glucose load, followed by a blood test one hour later. We wish to compare 7-day continuous glucose monitoring to the one-hour glucola test, and detremine which one correlates better with adverse pregnancy outcomes as well as which one more accurately identifies patients at risk for adverse pregnancy outcomes.
