SANDY HOOPS, PA-C, CDE MARY VOELMLE, FNP, CDE
OBJECTIVES
• GROUP DISCUSSION OF CONTRACEPTIVE OPTIONS FOR THE PATIENT WITH TYPE 1 DIABETES
• GROUP DISCUSSION OF MANAGEMENT OF PREGNANCY IN THE PATIENT WITH TYPE 1 DIABETES
CASE 1
15 YEAR OLD with DM x 8 yrs

WHAT ADVISE DO YOU GIVE?
Case 1ISSUES TO DISCUSS WITH YOUR
ADOLESCENT PATIENT(SEXUALLY ACTIVE OR THINKING ABOUT IT)
• TIME = TRUST
• CONFIDENTIALITY
• OPTIONS
-Preconceptual Counseling
• CORRECT RESOURCES
• TROUBLE SHOOTING
Hormonal contraceptive
• Depo Provera - subQ
• Femcon FE
• Implanon
• Mirena IUS
• Plan B
• Seasonique
• Yaz 24/4
Non Hormonal Contraception
• IUD
• Diaphragm
• Cervical Cap
• Condom
• Vaginal Sponge
• Spermicides
• Abstinence
What to Recommend?
• Preconceptual Counseling
• Hormonal vs. Non-Hormonal
• Patient specific
• Hormonal – Lo dose estrogen
• Non-Hormonal – IUD, barrier method
• ALWAYS CONDOMS!!
Case 2 IMPROVE CONTROL NOW!
• Increase glucose testing to 10 x daily
• Consider CGM
• Quit smoking
• Add PNV
• Referral to perinatology
• Consider CSII
Results!
Planning Pregnancy
• HbA1c level < 6% provide significantly better glucose levels than those > 6% *
• Detection rate of hyper- and hypoglycemia higher in patients testing 10 or more times daily *
• Established pre-pregnancy DM control key
*Kerssen et al., Diabetologia, 2006, 49: 25-28.
Risk to Mom with Type I
• Hypoglycemia
• Urgent reduction in glucose variability – strict control initiated within 24-48 hrs of pos HCG
• Accelerated retinopathy
• PIH
• Preeclampsia
• Diabetic ketoacidosis
Risk Factor for Progression to PDR
1- Baseline retinopathy
2- Elevated HbA1c at conception
3- Rapid normalization of blood glucose
4- Duration of DM greater than 6 years
5- Proteinuria
Phelps et al. Arch Ophthalmol 1986; 104:1806-10.
Effect of Pregnancy on Microvascular Complications
• Pregnancy in Type I DM induces transient increase in the risk of retinopathy; increased ophthalmologic surveillance is needed during pregnancy and 1st yr postpartum.
• Long-term risk of progression of early retinopathy and albumin excretion do not appear to be increased in pregnancy
DCCT, Diabetes Care, 23 (8), August 2000
Risk to Infant of Diabetic Mothers
• Congenital malformations – occur during organogenesis – 7 weeks gestation
• Spontaneous abortion due to maternal hyperglycemia, vascular disease, uteroplacental insufficiency
• Congenital malformations 13% in women with diabetes vs 2% nondiabetic mothers
Jovanovic. Endocrinlogy Metab Clinic N America 35 92006) 97-97.
Pregnancy Goals• Hemoglobin A1C Goals: 5.0%-6.0%
Glucose Goals: Pre-meal/Fasting 60-99 mg/dl
1-hour or peak postprandial <129 mg/dlBedtime 100-130 mg/dl
Overall average: 110 mg/dl
• Seen in clinic bi-monthly/ monthly for diabetes management. • OB monthly to follow baby – perinatology referral if needed.• Retinal eye exam in each trimester.• 24 hr urine for protein excretion and creatinine 1st/3rd trimester.• TSH and Free T4 at first visit. Treat TSH >2.5• Most deliver by induction at 37-39 weeks gestation if lungs are
mature.
Insulin Adjustments During Pregnancy
• Intensification to insulin regime initially
• 9-12 weeks expect more frequent hypoglycemia
• 24-28 weeks initial insulin resistance
• Insulin dose 2-3 x starting dose by delivery
• Watch for undetermined hypoglycemia 36+ weeks to increase fetal monitoring

ConclusionsConclusions Pregnancy is a motivator in itself to encourage optimal glucose Pregnancy is a motivator in itself to encourage optimal glucose
control, yet tools such as RTCGM allow more patient awareness of control, yet tools such as RTCGM allow more patient awareness of continuous glucose level changes. This addition to SMBG may continuous glucose level changes. This addition to SMBG may allow the patient to make more informed decisions about insulin allow the patient to make more informed decisions about insulin therapy. A significantly lower A1c at 7 months of gestation leads therapy. A significantly lower A1c at 7 months of gestation leads us to believe that A1c reduction was significant at delivery and us to believe that A1c reduction was significant at delivery and therefore indicative of superior glucose control. Severe therefore indicative of superior glucose control. Severe hypoglycemia is a risk of obtaining and maintaining near normal hypoglycemia is a risk of obtaining and maintaining near normal A1c’s. Women who are pregnant need to have additional tools A1c’s. Women who are pregnant need to have additional tools available at their disposal to help them detect glucoses values available at their disposal to help them detect glucoses values below target range (<60 mg/dl) and avoid dangerous outcomes. below target range (<60 mg/dl) and avoid dangerous outcomes.
We conclude the use of RTCGM in pregnancy with diabetes may We conclude the use of RTCGM in pregnancy with diabetes may improve metabolic control throughout gestation. Pregnancy is improve metabolic control throughout gestation. Pregnancy is clearly a motivating factor for women to reduce their A1c values, clearly a motivating factor for women to reduce their A1c values, yet as pregnancy progresses RTCGM has the ability to maintain yet as pregnancy progresses RTCGM has the ability to maintain that reduction in A1c better than SMBG alone. Severe that reduction in A1c better than SMBG alone. Severe hypoglycemia can be avoided if patients are given tools to help hypoglycemia can be avoided if patients are given tools to help detect glucoses in a low range. This pilot study supports the need detect glucoses in a low range. This pilot study supports the need for larger, randomized, controlled trial to evaluate the significance for larger, randomized, controlled trial to evaluate the significance and clinical implications of RTCGM in the management of pregnant and clinical implications of RTCGM in the management of pregnant women with type 1 diabetes.women with type 1 diabetes.
