Scientific title | |
Study objectives | Women at risk (overweight, age 40 years or older, earlier macrosomic child, diabetic first stage relatives) will receive intensified diet and physical activity counselling, which prevents their gestational diabetes. |
Ethics approval(s) | Ethical Committee of Pirkanmaa Hospital District. Approved on 24/02/2007. Amendments approved on 11/09/2007 (ref: R02630) |
Health condition(s) or problem(s) studied | Gestational diabetes |
Intervention | 14 counties are participating in the trial. They are randomised to the intervention and control groups (7 counties each). Intervention group: Intensified, tailored diet and physical activity counselling during five scheduled visits to a public health nurse in maternity health care. Visits take place at 8-9, 16-18, 22-24, 32-34 and 36-37 pregnancy weeks. In addition to physical activity counselling, participants have monthly meetings with peers guided by a physiotherapist. Participants in the maternity health care in control counties receive usual care only. (See ISRCTN21512277 for pilot study) |
Intervention type | Other |
Primary outcome measure | Prevention of gestational diabetes, assessed by: 1. Oral glucose tolerance test during pregnancy weeks 26-28 2. Weight of the newborn |
Secondary outcome measures | 1. Maternal weight development. Maternal weight will be measured 5 times during pregnancy, on pregnancy weeks 8-9, 16-18, 22-24, 32-34 and 36-37, and 6-8 weeks after delivery. 2. Child weight development, followed one year after delivery. 3. Need of insulin treatment during pregnancy. This will be determined at time of possible GDM diagnosis (earliest 26-28th week of pregnancy based on Oral Glucose Tolerance Test [OGTT]). |
