WHY PARTICIPATE IN RESEARCH?
Patients like you are central to moving preeclampsia research forward.
Although we now understand more about what causes preeclampsia, there are still so many unanswered questions that your experience can help us understand:
- Why does preeclampsia happen in some pregnancies and not others?
- Why does preeclampsia happen to some women who have no risk factors?
- Why is preeclampsia more severe in some patients?
- How does preeclampsia affect women beyond their pregnancy experiences, including their long-term physical and mental well-being?
All of these questions and more are being studied by researchers around the world and right here, thanks in no small part to the Preeclampsia Foundation community and our continued drive to fund and support research on preeclampsia, HELLP syndrome, and related hypertensive disorders of pregnancy.
As a patient, the choice to participate in any research study is up to you. Here’s how YOU can get involved.
