How the placenta, blood, and urine samples can help us understand preeclampsia and growth problems in pregnancy

Is this trial a fit for you?

A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This is an observational study that aims to collect biological samples at delivery to study the physiology of preeclampsia and vascular fetal growth restriction. Researchers will gather placental tissue, blood, and urine to build a biological collection. The goal is to improve knowledge of how these placental vascular problems develop and to support future obstetric and neonatal care.
