Poon was the first researcher to have developed an effective first trimester prediction model based on a combination of maternal factors, blood pressure, uterine artery Doppler, serum pregnancy-associated plasma protein-A and placental growth factor for early-onset preeclampsia, achieving a detection rate of 90%, at 5% false-positive rate.
