Poster Session II
We conducted a retrospective cohort study of all individuals using CGM during pregnancy from January 2017 to June 2022 at a quaternary center. Individuals with Type 1 diabetes, or those with missing CGM or delivery data were excluded. Primary composite neonatal outcome included any of the following: large for gestational age, NICU admission, need for IV glucose, respiratory support or neonatal death. Secondary outcomes included other maternal and neonatal outcomes. Regression models were used to estimate adjusted odds ratio (aOR) and 95% confidence intervals (CI).
Results: During the study period, of 141 individuals with diabetes who utilized CGM during pregnancy, 65 (46%) met inclusion criteria. Excluded were Type 1(n= 57) diabetes, missing CGM data (n=5), missing delivery data (n=14). Of the study population, 28 (43%) had TIR < 70% and 37 (57%) had TIR ≥ 70%. Individuals with TIR < 70% had a higher mean glucose reading (151 vs 109, p< 0.001), and were less likely to have GDM (Table 1). The primary composite outcome occurred more frequently in neonates of individuals with TIR < 70% (71.4% vs 37.8%, aOR 4.8, 95% CI 1.6, 15.7). Furthermore, people with TIR < 70% were more likely to have hypertensive disorders (42.9% versus 16.2%, OR 3.9, 95% CI 1.3, 13.0), have a preterm delivery (54% vs 27%, OR 3.1, 95% CI 1.1, 9.1), and have cesarean delivery (96.4% vs 51.4%, OR 4.6, 95% CI 2.2, 15.1; Table 2) compared to those with TIR≥70%.
Conclusion: Among people with T2DM or GDM who utilized CGM during pregnancy, 4 out 10 individuals had TIR < 70% and they are at significantly higher risk of adverse neonatal and maternal outcomes.
