Type | Measure | Description | Time frame | Safety issue |
---|---|---|---|---|
Primary | Convenience and Safety | Convenience parameters included nurse/subjects preference; time to train subject; operative tolerance and wastage of product which were assessed during the post-treatment period. Safety parameters included local reactions (pain, bruising, redness, itching, swelling)and adverse drug events which were assessed during the pre-treatment, treatment and post-treatment period. |
1 year | Yes |
Secondary | Efficacy | Collection of routine data from the RecDate registry such as: stimulation duration; FSH starting dose; FSH dosage on last treatment day; total amount of gonadotrophin needed; number of follicles on the day of the last ultra-scan; number of oocytes retrieved; number of fertilized oocytes; number of embryos transferred; wastage of product; number of cartridges of Gonal-f (300 IU, 450 IU, and 900 IU) and Puregon (300 IU and 600 IU) opened; clinical pregnancy by Ultra-scan (if already available at time point of final report writing). | 1 year | No |
