Does the Endometrial Scratch Improve Implantation Rates?
نویسندگان
چکیده
Implantation is one of the most crucial steps in the process of reproduction. Implantation failure is often due to impaired uterine receptivity. Assisted Reproduction techniques are used in order to overcome fertility problems. The endometrial scratch (ES) is a relatively new technique that is said to improve the probability of a successful pregnancy in some women. 1 Although the exact mechanism of this process is still unknown 2 , the use of a catheter to cause local injury to the endometrial lining is suggested to initiate a healing process, thereby attracting immune markers and potentially improving implantation rates. The aim of this study is to assess whether the ES offered randomly to patients attending for ART results in a higher implantation rate in patients that avail of it compared to patients that do not have an endometrial scratch (non-ES).

I-26: The Role of Endometrial Injury in Improvement of The Pregnancy Rate in Patients Undergoing ART
Background: Because implantation failure is more frequent, many methods have been suggested to improve the implantation; however, their results have been inconsistent. One of the most hopeful methods is local endometrial injury. To explore the possibility that local injury of the endometrium increases the incidence of implantation and pregnancy rate in the subsequent IVF cycle in patients havin...

Controlled ovarian hyperstimulation (COH) affects adversely implantation following in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. COH with gonadotropins alters endometrial receptivity and luteal function. In addition periovulatory endometrial characteristics in stimulated cycles are considerably different compared with the natural cycles, and periovulatory secretory transformation is consistently ...

Mechanical endometrial injury (biopsy/scratch or hysteroscopy) in the cycle preceding ovarian stimulation for IVF has been proposed to improve implantation in women with unexplained recurrent implantation failure (RIF). This is a systematic review and meta-analysis of studies comparing the efficacy of endometrial injury versus no intervention in women with RIF undergoing IVF. All controlled stu...
