Mirvie uses RNA technology to predict pregnancy complications, such as preeclampsia, through a simple blood test.

A Revolutionary Approach to Anticipating and Preventing Preeclampsia

Unveiling the Dangers of Preeclampsia

Maneesh Jain and Dr. Steve Quake were both deeply affected by their personal experiences with pregnancy complications, leading them to co-found Mirvie in 2018. Their mission was to combat preeclampsia, a severe condition affecting numerous pregnancies worldwide, often leading to life-threatening consequences. Traditional screening methods have proven inadequate, relying on imprecise factors like age and family history.

The ramifications of preeclampsia extend beyond immediate health risks, impacting long-term well-being for both mothers and babies. The financial burden is significant, with billions spent on medical care in the aftermath of preeclampsia cases in the U.S. alone.

Dr. Dallas Reed emphasizes the challenge of identifying those at risk, with current criteria labeling almost every pregnant woman as susceptible. Mirvie’s innovative solution, Encompass, offers a groundbreaking RNA-based blood test that accurately predicts preeclampsia risk before symptoms manifest.

Empowering Patients with Personalized Care Plans

Encompass has shown remarkable success in identifying high-risk pregnancies, enabling tailored care plans to mitigate the impact of preeclampsia. Mirvie’s patient-centric approach led to the creation of a comprehensive care plan, endorsed by various healthcare professionals and published in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology in 2023.

The plan incorporates evidence-based strategies such as medication, monitoring, and lifestyle adjustments to empower patients and providers in managing preeclampsia risks effectively.

Advocating for Family Health Through Male Involvement

Jain and Quake acknowledge the historical underrepresentation of women’s health issues and aim to amplify female voices through their work at Mirvie. They emphasize the broader impact of maternal health on families and society as a whole, driving their commitment to innovation and empathy.

Mirvie’s diverse team prioritizes patient and provider feedback, ensuring that their solutions address real-world needs effectively. Their efforts have garnered substantial funding and recognition, including a grant from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to study RNA-based testing in Sub-Saharan Africa.

Shifting Paradigms in Maternal Health

Despite progress, maternal health remains underfunded, representing a mere fraction of overall healthcare investment. Jain advocates for a shift towards prioritizing women’s health, highlighting the tangible benefits of proactive prenatal care in improving outcomes.

As we celebrate Father’s Day, Jain and Quake exemplify how parenthood can inspire transformative action. Their journey from personal fear to a mission of safeguarding families from preeclampsia underscores the vital role of innovation and advocacy in maternal health.
