Abstract
Gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is a strong risk factor for developing overt diabetes later in life, and studies have demonstrated that identification of prediabetes can enable interventions preventing subsequent diabetes. Various professional societies have stressed the importance of postpartum glucose tolerance testing (GTT) for patients with GDM, although few strategies have been evaluated. We assessed the impact of a one-year program sponsored by the Rhode Island Department of Health aimed at increasing postpartum GTT using direct nurse and patient navigator supervision.
