Methods Patients who received prenatal care between January 1, 2003 and June 2006 were the non-nursing case management group. Patients who received prenatal care in the private physician practice between July 2006 and June 2009 were the telephone nursing case management group. Patients who received care in the clinic between July 2006 and June 2009 were the face-to-face nursing case management group. A data collection sheet was created based upon maternal and neonatal outcomes related to diabetes in pregnancy. The independent variables were participation in either type of nursing case management. The maternaldependent variables were A1C, preterm labor, and preeclampsia. The neonatal/fetal variables were macrosomia, respiratory distress syndrome, and plasma glucose level at birth.
