Summary

This project will utilize MHealth technology to address the barriers providers and obstetric patients experience when reporting blood glucose results. Half of the participants will record their blood glucose values with the assistance of a smartphone device, the other half will continue in the traditional care method of the clinic.

Detailed description

This will be a prospective single center randomized trial piloting the use of mHealth applications in an obstetric population with diabetes. Participants will be enrolled in the study after the diagnosis of diabetes is made in pregnancy for those with gestational diabetes, or for patients with preexisting diabetes they will be enrolled upon initiation of prenatal care. Participants will be randomized to traditional care or mHealth intervention. Outcomes will include completeness and accuracy of the participant glucose log, unscheduled health care access episodes in the pregnancy, patient satisfaction, percentage of glucose values at goal and percent change in Hemoglobin A1C.
