Barriers Inconsistent cross-discipline awareness of the impact of testing Lack of clinical coding for suspected pre-eclampsia, undermining appreciation of the cost-benefit of testing Difficulty predicting long-term costs Resistance from laboratory staff in some units Current testing not available on whole blood
Facilitators National guidance now recommending adoption of testing Momentum of clinical community moving towards use in practice Funding available to aid implementation in some healthcare settings (e.g. tests and triage meters provided through the Innovation and Technology Payment programme, supported by NHS England)
