A new study by Maven Clinical Research Institute reveals that high-risk pregnancies managed by Maven health provider have significantly lower rates of NICU admissions and C-sections compared to national benchmarks. Dr. Neel Shah, chair of Maven's scientific advisory board, noted that more care and support lead to better outcomes.

Support measures include reminders for low-dose aspirin, nutritionist consultations, and doula meetings.
