ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how using a mobile app to track blood sugar levels compares to using paper logs for pregnant women with diabetes. The goal is to see if the app helps women keep better track of their blood sugar levels, which is important for both their health and their baby's health. This study is open to women aged 18 and older who are at least 12 weeks pregnant and have been diagnosed with either gestational diabetes or type 2 diabetes.

If you decide to participate, you will be asked to monitor your blood sugar levels either through a mobile app or by using paper logs. The trial is currently recruiting participants, so if you meet the criteria and are interested, you can get involved. It's important to note that women who have type 1 diabetes or are already using a continuous glucose monitor or another app for tracking their glucose levels cannot participate. This trial could help improve diabetes management for pregnant women in the future!
