“Physicians should consider the potential of integrating blood-based biomarker testing into routine prenatal care, especially for patients without obvious risk factors,” Hoffman said. “Adopting such tests could fundamentally change the landscape of prenatal care by shifting the focus toward prevention and early intervention."

About us
Sera Prognostics is a leading proteomic and bioinformatics company dedicated to improving the lives of women and babies through precision biomarker-based tests designed to enhance pregnancy care. Our vision is to deliver pivotal information to physicians early in pregnancy to help them to improve the health of their patients and reduce costs of healthcare delivery. The PreTRM® Test reports to a physician the individualized risk of premature birth, enabling earlier proactive interventions in patients with higher risk. We're also developing a robust pipeline of innovative tests focused on other complications of pregnancy, including preeclampsia, gestational diabetes, growth restriction, and others.

“The blood test made life so much easier because it made us feel more secure,” says Phelps-Sandall. She now offers the test to every patient she sees, regardless of their risk of delivering prematurely. “It gives us information we never really had before.” Now, women can order it whether or not their ob-gyn knows about it or offers it.

“Luckily, there are now ways doctors can help predict the risk of preterm birth prior to labor,” Dr. Phelps-Sandall says. She specifically points to the PreTRM Test, which can predict the risk of preterm birth even in singleton pregnancies with no symptoms."

Improved access to care, patient education and new innovations – can save lives All Moms should have access to scientific advancements that can help improve health outcomes for them and their babies. In the case of Bonnie, it was the PreTRM® test from Sera™ which provided her with crucial information. The PreTRM test determined Bonnie was at higher risk of giving birth early. This prompted her father, former Sera Chief Medical Officer, Dr. Mike Foley, to stay in regular contact and provide weekly education. Bonnie's knowledge of fetal movement norms helped her make a quick decision to go to the hospital, ultimately helping save her baby's life.
