Read our Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 research guide →This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing two different ways to screen women for type 2 diabetes after they give birth. Researchers want to see if it's better for community health workers to do a simple glucose (blood sugar) test at home, or to refer women to a clinic for testing. The study takes place in urban slum communities in Pune, India, and includes 330 women who had gestational diabetes during pregnancy.
Many women develop type 2 diabetes after having gestational diabetes during pregnancy, but many don't get screened because clinics are hard to reach. This trial is testing whether bringing screening directly to women's homes through trained community health workers can help more women get tested and catch diabetes early.

If you join this study, you will first receive a glucose screening test from a community health worker during your pregnancy. If you are diagnosed with gestational diabetes, you will be randomly assigned to one of two groups. In the home testing group, a community health worker will visit your home within the first year after birth to do a glucose test and provide education about diabetes. In the referral group, a community health worker will visit your home to provide diabetes education and a referral to a government hospital clinic for testing. Some participants may also receive a special protein-fiber food supplement to test for glucose control.
