简要总结
A Pilot of Metformin Postpartum
详细描述
The overall goal of this proposal is to assess metformin initiation at the time of hospital discharge for women with a history of gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) improves maternal health at 1 year post-partum. Our central hypothesis is that diabetes mellitus (DM) prevention with metformin can be initiated days after delivery, rather than months to years after delivery, and result in a pragmatic and efficacious means of preventing DM and improving weight loss over the first year post-partum. To test this hypothesis, we will perform a open-label randomized controlled trial of metformin compared to placebo routine care initiated at the time of hospital discharge in women with a history of GDM.
