Summary
This study is testing whether a quick, non-invasive test of blood vessel function can help predict and diagnose preeclampsia and other high blood pressure disorders in pregnancy. Researchers will follow 400 first-time pregnant women, measuring vessel health early in pregnancy and again at 24-27 weeks. The goal is to find a better way to catch these conditions early and improve outcomes for mothers and babies.
