Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Main Objective: To test whether oral acarbose is non-inferior to subcutaneous prandial insulin for the occurrence of perinatal complications in the management of pregnant women developing GDM and requiring treatment other than diet to control post-prandial glucose values. ;Secondary Objective: A. To compare the two treatment strategies on maternal glycaemic control B. To compare the acarbose arm and the prandial insulin arm on maternal and neonatal complications C. To test the acceptance/satisfaction of the two strategies D. To compare the acarbose and insulin on side effects E. To evaluate maternal and offspring short term follow-up (3 months after delivery) F. Conservation of serum and cord fluid at the time of delivery;Primary end point(s): Composite endpoint: birth weight = 90th percentile for gestational age (large for gestational age: LGA) and/or neonatal hypoglycemia and/or shoulder dystocia and/or birth injury;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Birth | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary end point(s): A. Capillary glucose levels / Need for prandial insulin in the acarbose arm / Need for basal insulin B. Birth weight = 4000g / Birth weight = 4500g / Preeclampsia / Pregnancy-induced hypertension / Cesarean section / Maternal inpatient admission during pregnancy / Preterm delivery (<37 gestation weeks) / Extreme prematurity (<32 gestation weeks) / 5-min Apgar score / Phototherapy / Neonatal respiratory distress syndrome / Intrauterine fetal or neonatal death / Admission to neonatal intensive care unit / Malformations C. Quality of life / satisfaction questionnaires D. Gestational weight gain / Hypoglycemia / Gastro-intestinal side effects E. Results of oral glucose tolerance test / Weight changes 3 months after delivery F. Future biochemical measurements;Timepoint(s) of evaluation of this end point: Birth and 12 to 16 weeks after delivery | — |
