The World Health Organization (WHO) and its partners released a new roadmap spanning up to 2035 to address hypertensive disorders during pregnancy, including preeclampsia. Announced in Geneva on October 8, the initiative calls for significantly greater investment in diagnostic tools and treatments.
The WHO highlighted a persistent innovation gap in this area, noting that the lack of new specific medications to prevent pregnancy-related hypertension contrasts sharply with the high prevalence and impact of these conditions. According to the data, hypertensive disorders affect between 10 and 15 percent of all pregnancies and represent a major cause of maternal health complications.
