Longitudinal Observation of Insulin Use and Glucose Time-in-Range in T1D Pregnancy

The target time in range (TIR) for pregnant women with type 1 diabetes (T1D) by the International Consensus on TIR is 70% between 63-140 mg/dL. This is difficult to achieve and is rarely met in the literature. Insulin use increases during pregnancy, but prospective data and guidance on pump setting adjustments are limited. Insulin pump delivery and CGM data for 17 T1D women from 3 U.S. sites were prospectively collected every 2 weeks as part of the LOIS-P trial. Subjects enrolled before 17 weeks gestational age (GA) and wore personal pumps and study Dexcom G6 CGM. Changes in mean daily total, basal and bolus doses per kilogram, and TIR for every 2 weeks GA are reported, and linear mixed effects regression models are used for evaluation across trimesters. Enrollment HbA1C was 6.4±0.8%. Total daily dose increased from 0.68 to 0.73 to 0.98 U/kg during the first, second and third trimesters …
