Maternal-fetal infections, also known as congenital infections, occur when pathogens such as cytomegalovirus (CMV), toxoplasmosis, syphilis, HIV, or Zika virus are transmitted from mother to fetus during pregnancy or childbirth. These infections can lead to miscarriage, stillbirth, congenital abnormalities, and long-term health complications. This session will focus on prenatal screening, molecular diagnostics, maternal vaccination, prevention strategies, and advances in the diagnosis and management of maternal-fetal infections.
Market Analysis:
The global maternal-fetal infection diagnostics and therapeutics market continues to grow, driven by increasing awareness of prenatal care, advancements in molecular diagnostics, and expanding maternal screening programs. As of 2026, the market is estimated at approximately USD 4.3 billion and is projected to surpass USD 7 billion by 2031, growing at a CAGR of around 10%. Rising healthcare investments, improved access to prenatal care, and government initiatives supporting maternal and neonatal health are expected to fuel continued market growth, with North America leading the market and Asia-Pacific witnessing the fastest expansion.
