Evaluation of Blood Glucose Meter Efficacy in an Antenatal Diabetes Clinic.

Background: The optimal treatment of diabetes in pregnancy requires accurate measurement of blood glucose levels, in order to minimize adverse outcomes for both mother and neonate. Self-monitoring of blood glucose is routinely used to measure glycemic control and to assess whether treatment targets are being met; however, the accuracy of blood glucose meters in pregnancy is unclear.

Materials And Methods: Pregnant women with gestational, type 1, or type 2 diabetes mellitus were eligible to participate.
