dc.description.abstractThe increase in gestational diabetes mellitus GDM is challenging maternity services We have developed an interactive smartphone based remote blood glucose BG monitoring system GDm health The objective was to determine women s satisfaction with using the GDm health system and their attitudes toward their diabetes care In a service development program involving 52 pregnant women September 2012 to June 2013 BG was monitored using GDm health from diagnosis until delivery Following birth women completed a structured questionnaire assessing 1 general satisfaction 2 equipment issues and 3 relationship with the diabetes care team Responses were scored on a 7 point Likert type scale Reliability and validity of the questionnaire were assessed using statistical methods Of 52 women 49 completed the questionnaire 32 had glucose tolerance test confirmed GDM gestation at recruitment 29 4 weeks mean SD and 17 women previous GDM recommended for BG monitoring 18 6 weeks In all 45 of 49 women agreed their care was satisfactory and the best for them 47 of 49 and 43 of 49 agreed the equipment was convenient and reliable respectively 42 of 49 agreed GDm health fitted into their lifestyle and 46 of 49 agreed they had a good relationship with their care team Written comments supported these findings with very positive reactions from the majority of women Cronbach s alpha was 89 with factor analysis corresponding with question thematic trends This pilot demonstrates that GDm health is acceptable and convenient for a large proportion of women Effects on clinical and economic outcomes are currently under investigation in a randomized trial clinicaltrials gov NCT01916694
