There is limited evidence in the literature about telemedicine superiority in improving pregnancy outcomes for women with gestational diabetes. The primary aim of the study was to evaluate maternal and fetal outcomes, while the secondary aim was to estimate the degree of satisfaction with gestational diabetes treatment, comparing telemedicine versus outpatient care.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This observational cohort study involved 60 consecutive women with gestational diabetes treated at the Diabetology Unit of Ferrara: 27 were followed up through a weekly remote control method (telemedicine group) and 33 in ambulatory clinics every 2 or 3\u2009weeks (conventional group). After giving birth, 56 women responded to the modified Oxford Maternity Diabetes Treatment Satisfaction Questionnaire to assess their satisfaction with diabetes care.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      No statistically significant differences were found in most of the maternal and neonatal parameters evaluated in both groups. The questionnaire scores were positive in all areas investigated. Telemedicine follow\u2010up made women feel more controlled (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.045) and fit better with their lifestyle (\n                      <jats:italic>p<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20090.005).
