Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The hypothesis being tested is- A gestational Diabetes Mellitus woman receiving metformin is not inferior to a gestational diabetes mellitus woman receiving insulin among in maintaining the Time in Range levels (TIR) Primary Objective: 1. To compare Continuous Glucose Monitoring derived Time in Range in women with gestational diabetes mellitus treated with metformin or insulin Timepoint: 14 days

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Secondary Objective: 1. To compare CGM-derived glycemic variability indices apart from Time in Range in women with gestational diabetes mellitus treated with metformin or insulin Timepoint: 14 days
