Discussion

Systematic review shows CGM improves glycemic control over SMBG in gestational diabetes, indicating better maternal and neonatal outcomes.

Continuous glucose monitoring significantly enhances glycemic control compared to self-monitoring of blood glucose in women with gestational diabetes.
Improvements in time in range and reductions in glycemic variability were observed with continuous glucose monitoring.
The review analyzed 35 studies, following rigorous PRISMA guidelines, to compare the effectiveness of both monitoring methods.
Findings suggest integrating continuous glucose monitoring into clinical practice may lead to favorable maternal and neonatal health outcomes.

Bhavadharini et al. (2025) studied this question.
