Slice Four ❤️: AI vs Preeclampsia - A New Era for Maternal Heart Health

In this episode of The Pink Pineapple Podcast, Claudia and Emma sit down with Dr Fran Conti-Ramsden — obstetrics and gynaecology doctor, clinical researcher, and CMO of MEGI Health — for a powerful deep dive into one of the most misunderstood conditions in women’s health: preeclampsia.Fran explains why this complex pregnancy disease looks different in every woman, why it can appear after birth, and how it dramatically increases long-term cardiovascular risk. The conversation uncovers the major blind spots in postpartum care, the overlooked importance of interpregnancy health, and why so many women are never told about the lifetime implications of preeclampsia.We explore how MEGI Health is using AI, remote monitoring and smarter self-management tools to reshape the future of pregnancy hypertension — empowering patients, supporting clinicians, and helping prevent avoidable complications.This episode shines a light on the huge research gap in women’s cardiovascular health, the inequities in funding, and why the next wave of innovation in maternal health must be data-driven, personalised and continuous — not just focused on pregnancy, but every stage before and after it.
