A sample size of 74 participants was studied to detect a 10-mg\/dL difference in neonatal blood glucose within 2\u2009hours of birth between the groups with a standard deviation of 15, 80% power, and \u03b1 0.05. Secondary neonatal outcomes included neonatal blood glucose within 24\u2009hours after birth, Apgar\u2009&lt;\u20097 at 5\u2009minutes, and a composite including neonatal hypoglycemia, NICU admission, hyperbilirubinemia, and respiratory distress syndrome. Secondary maternal outcomes included intrapartum hypoglycemia, blood glucose immediately prior to delivery, mode of delivery, and postpartum complications. Both intention-to-treat (ITT) and per-protocol (PP) analyses were performed.<\/jats:p><jats:p>A total of 114 patients were randomized, 57 in each arm. For the PP analysis, 51 patients were analyzed in the rotating IV fluids arm and 32 patients in the insulin infusion arm.

No significant differences were noted in secondary outcomes. The median intrapartum maternal blood glucose was 98.5\u2009mg\/dL (IQR: 90.5, 105.0) in the rotating fluids arm and 96.3\u2009mg\/dL (IQR: 90.0, 108.5) in the insulin infusion arm (p\u2009=\u20090.96), and the rate of neonatal hypoglycemia was 11.8 versus 15.6%, respectively (p\u2009=\u20090.61) in the PP analysis.<\/jats:p><jats:p>There was no difference in neonatal blood glucose within 2\u2009hours of birth when rotating IV fluids were used for intrapartum glycemic control compared with a continuous insulin infusion.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1055\/a-2510-4906","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,2,10]],"date-time":"2025-02-10T18:50:36Z","timestamp":1739213436000},"page":"1491-1499","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Intrapartum Glycemic Control with Insulin Infusion versus Rotating Fluids: A Randomized Controlled Trial"],"prefix":"10.1055","volume":"42","author":[{"given":"Maranda","family":"Sullivan","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Geisinger Medical Center, Danville, Pennsylvania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Kajal","family":"Angras","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Geisinger Medical Center, Danville, Pennsylvania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Victoria","family":"Boyd","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Geisinger Medical Center, Danville, Pennsylvania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Amanda J.","family":"Young","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Department of Population Health Sciences, Geisinger Medical Center, Danville, Pennsylvania"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"A.
