Lay summary

The National Pregnancy in Diabetes (NPID) Audit measures the quality of pre-gestational diabetes care against NICE guideline based criteria and the outcomes of pre-gestational diabetic pregnancy. It answers the following three key questions: Were women with diabetes adequately prepared for pregnancy? Were appropriate steps taken during pregnancy to minimise adverse outcomes to the mother? Did any adverse outcomes occur? As part of this measurement, and using NNRD data, NHS Digital will extend their investigations to see whether the outcomes of women with pre-existing diabetes and their babies are different to the general population and will also examine if there is a higher instance of admissions to neonatal intensive care, and if these admissions are for longer periods. The findings can then be used to inform changes to the diabetes service for women of childbearing age.
