Filter by:Cryopreservation of embryos and oocytes has become routine in assisted reproduction technology (ART). Live birth rates following frozen embryo transfers have increased significantly. Data show that cryopreservation has significant improved survival rates and cumulative pregnancy rates, as well as the safety of ART . Embryo cryopreservation has become a cornerstone in ART. With improved vitrification techniques. Frozen embryos transfer (FET) shows equal or even higher implantation and pregnancy rates than do fresh embryo transfers ART Previous studies show equal or even superior outcomes regarding pregnancy and live birth rates with frozen versus fresh embryo transfer Cryopreserve all embryos have increased substantially in recent years, and according to the recent trend of a freeze-all strategy. This study aims to answer a clinical question encountered in daily practice regarding at what stage embryos should be frozen.
This is a randomized multi-centre, assessor-blind, parallel-group study to be conducted in 250 women in the age group of 20 to 39 years (both inclusive), who are indicated to undergo COS as part of assisted reproductive technology (ART). The participant will receive r-hFSH, fixed-dose for 5 days, and day 6 onwards the dose may be adjusted for a single cycle of COS followed by ART procedures, and post-ART follow-up for ongoing pregnancy. The primary and secondary outcomes will be captured on days as per protocol. Adverse events will be noted for safety evaluation.
Hysteroscopy has now become a gold-standard technique carried out for uterine cavity assessment in infertile women. Apart from direct visualizing of the endometrium by the naked eye, pathologies missed by other modalities of investigation can be picked up and managed appropriately. Unfortunately, the procedure itself is not free from complications e.g. perforation, cervical laceration, bleeding, limited access in cases of cervical stenosis and considered as an invasive procedure. Two-dimensional transvaginal ultrasonography (2D-TVS)and Three-dimensional TVS (3D-TVS) are non-invasive methods for evaluating the uterine cavity. The3D-TVS is superior to 2D-TVS in identifying uterine cavity abnormalities due to its ability to obtain a view of three different planes of the uterus, which could be used to locate the position of intracavitary pathology. Reports vary regarding the diagnostic accuracy of 3D-TVS that was reported to have 41.3-81.5% sensitivity and 94.6-98.7% specificity. So it became clear that 3D-TVS is a non-invasive and safe diagnostic tool for evaluation of the uterine cavity abnormalities but its sensitivity, specificity and accuracy still a matter of debate and warrants more evaluation.
