Information will be collected from postpartum women with recent gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM). A
randomized controlled clinical trial will be conducted to evaluate the effectiveness of a web-based lifestyle
intervention program that may promote weight management and reduce risk of developing type 2 diabetes.
Changes to the questionnaires are requested to allow for some participants to complete the final survey at 12 or 18 months, instead of 24. This will result in a slight decrease in total burden.
US Code:
24 USC 42
Name of Law: Public Health Service Act, Research and Investigations
Minor changes are requested to allow for some participants to complete the study at earlier points than previously anticipated. Changes decrease the total burden by 18 hours.
