I-32: Uterine Factors Are Important for Successful Embryo Transfer After IVF
نویسنده
چکیده مقاله:
Embryo transfer (ET) is the final and most crucial step of the IVF procedure, characterized by a close collaboration between the clinician and the embryologist. Several studies have shown improvement in clinical pregnancy rates resulting from a focus on different aspects of the gentle embryo transfer technique. Issues such as impact of physician’s experience, trial transfer, catheter type, embryo deposition site, ultrasound-guided transfer, catheter loading techniques, routine antibiotics, removing cervical mucus before ET, use of tenaculum, bed rest, acupuncture and drugs to induce uterine relaxing. Since the final outcome is influenced by blood/ mucus, uterine contractions, and retained embryos, which in turn depends upon individual technical skills, it is likely that the clinician’s experience has an impact. Gentle automatic transfer refers to two important factors avoiding damage to the endometrium and unwanted uterine contractions. To prevent unwanted uterine contractions, some precautions should be taken such as using a soft catheter, avoiding touching uterine fondus, avoid using a tenaculum. Such stimulation of the cervix may provoke uterine contractions originating from a provoked release of oxytocin. Removing cervical mucus or flushing the cervical canal before ET has gained some focus in the literature, so far, the optimal embryo transfer protocol is not known.

Which factors are important for successful embryo transfer after in-vitro fertilization?
The success rate after treatment by in-vitro fertilization (IVF) depends on the characteristics of the couples being treated, and the performance of the clinic. The former cannot be changed, and embryology laboratories have worked hard to optimize procedures. Numerous studies have been reported on how to improve insemination and culture procedures. The clinicians' role is confined to stimulatio...
متن کاملFactors affecting the successful embryo transfer
The main factors affecting pregnancy and implantation rates are uterine receptivity, embryo quality, and transfer efficiency. Embryo transfer (ET) is the last step of critically important procedure of in vitro fertilization (IVF) and probably the least successful step in Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) treatment cascade; though simple in most of the cases, it may pose to be the most diff...

IVF Treatment and Single Embryo Transfer
IVF has been described as one the medical breakthroughs of the 20 th Century. Over 5 million children have been born using the methods first developed by Robert Edwards who died last year. However there is continuing concern about some of the outcomes of IVF treatment (Kamphuis et al., 2014), particularly the high number of multiple births, a problem which became apparent only a few years after...
متن کاملEmbryo transfer duration and IVF success
Difficult ET is associated with impaired implantation 3 probably due to endometrial damage , presence of blood in the catheter 5, and triggering of uterine contractions due to cervical manipulation. There is hardly any literature on the effect of time employed for performing ET on the success rates of IVF cycles. Logically, the time employed for performing ET may be an important prognostic fact...
