The majority of women with Type 2 diabetes currently become pregnant without meeting current NICE care guidelines, putting their babies and personal health at risk. This study aims to address this problem by introducing a new care template for practices to support routine diabetes consultations with women of childbearing age. Participating practices would also be given access to a short online training programme on pregnancy care in diabetes. Following the introduction of the care templates we would monitor their impact on the delivery of the embedded care processes at regular intervals. We will also be collecting data from local hospitals to estimate the number of women presenting antenatally who meet current NICE guidelines.
