Advancing Preeclampsia Risk Assessment: Integrating the sFlt-1/PlGF Ratio into Clinical Practice (01:01:12)

Preeclampsia affects millions of women each year, yet predicting which patients will progress to severe outcomes remains a challenge.¹ In this session, hear from Sarosh Rana, MD, MPH; S. Ananth Karumanchi, MD; and Allyson Kozak, PhD, MBA, NRCC will review the clinical evidence behind the sFlt-1/PlGF ratio and demonstrate how angiogenic biomarkers are being applied in real-world care to support more informed, timely decision-making.
