About the PreTRM® Test

The PreTRM® test is the first and only broadly clinically-validated blood test that provides an early and individual risk prediction for spontaneous preterm birth in asymptomatic, singleton pregnancies. The PreTRM test measures and analyzes proteins in the blood that are highly predictive of preterm birth.  The PreTRM test can help physicians identify early in the pregnancy (as early as 19 weeks of gestation) which women are at increased risk for premature delivery, enabling more informed clinical decisions based on each woman’s individual risk. The PreTRM test enables researchers to better understand the causes of preterm birth and to develop new therapies to improve newborn health.

The PreTRM test is ordered by a medical professional.

For more information about the PreTRM test, please visit www.PreTRM.com and the PreTRM test YouTube Channel.  You can also join the conversation on Facebook and @PreTRM.
