Filter by:The development and improvement in Preimplantation genetic diagnosis/screening (PGS) in association with the efficacy and security of vitrification and trophectoderm biopsy, more efficient stimulation schemes and laboratory improvements in culture and embryo selection have contributed to high success of the assisted reproductive technologies(ART). Transferring an euploid embryo avoids one of the main reasons of miscarriage and implantation failure ( Rubio et al, 22016) and overcomes one of the most important confounding factors. Usually, the transfer of euploid embryos is performed under standard hormone replacement therapy (HRT) and are referred to as FET-PGS cycles( Frozen embryo transfer). The study of FET-PGS cycles with the transfer of a single euploid blastocyst is the best model for evaluation of the impact of the endometrial preparation . Among factors influencing FET outcomes, patient's age, endometrial preparation, endometrium thickness, endometrial pattern, number and quality of embryos transferred , difficulty at ET, recently P4 have received more attention . The importance of Progesterone (P4) in embryo implantation has been widely studied. P4 plays an important role in endometrial gland formation, embryonic implantation and pregnancy maintenance, both in natural and artificial cycles.
The aim of this study is to compare the rate of miscarriage at first spontaneous pregnancy among women with endometriosis with the rate of miscarriage at first spontaneous pregnancy among women without endometriosis.
This study seeks to evaluate pregnancy outcomes following hysteroscopic uterine cavity expansion surgery for patients with dysmorphic uterine cavities and poor reproductive histories. Patients already planning to undergo surgery at the recommendation of their physicians will be recruited for participation.
Miscarriage is defined as the spontaneous loss of a pregnancy before 24 weeks' gestation, that is, before the fetal viability. The clinical signs of miscarriage are usually vaginal bleeding associated abdominal pain and cramping . The miscarriage is named 'complete' or 'incomplete' according to whether or not tissues are retained in the uterus. If a woman has minimal bleeding but her cervix is closed, this is known as a 'threatened miscarriage. However; if the pregnancy is still inside the uterus but the cervix is open, this is described as an 'inevitable miscarriage', which it will not usually be possible to save the fetus. From many years, the surgical curettage ('evacuation of the uterus') was considered the 'gold standard management' for miscarriage to remove the retained placental tissue. It is quickly performed and removed almost all the retained products of conception. However, the routine surgical evacuation of the uterus associated with higher rate of morbidity and mortality and should be limited for special indications. Many studies compared the effectiveness of medical treatment compared to surgery in management of incomplete abortion. There is only one study compared the curettage with expectant management in those women after medical therapy.However; none of them, looked at the effectiveness of the second chance of medical treatment in management of incomplete abortion in trial to avoid the surgical intervention after failure of previous medical treatment. So we think that the immediate evacuation using surgical intervention is truly unnecessary in most cases of failed medical abortion and the patients may get benefit from another trial of medical treatment.
Some women experience the pain of miscarriage on numerous occasions. Studies show that these women experience feelings of anxiety and distress during the early stages of a new pregnancy as they worry another miscarriage will occur. This study will investigate whether a coping strategy, developed for a similar group of women, would be acceptable and useful to women suffering recurrent miscarriage, and reduce the anxiety and worry they experience. A secondary aim of the study is to develop a deeper understanding of the experiences and feelings of women in the early stages of a new pregnancy, following multiple miscarriages.
The aim of this study was to compare the therapeutic efficacy of lipoic acid versus progesterone by vaginal administration on subchorionic hematoma resorption in women at the first trimester of pregnancy with threatened miscarriage.
To compare the success rate of letrozole and misoprostol versus misoprostol alone for medical termination of pregnancy in second trimester abortion.
Miscarriages and preterm births are common and serious events affecting women, families, and healthcare systems on many levels. One of the risk factors for miscarriage and preterm birth is bleeding in the first trimester of pregnancy. Progesterone, a hormone that plays a key role during pregnancy, has been proposed as a possible medication to be used in pregnancy to prevent miscarriage and preterm birth among women who have bleeding in their first trimester of pregnancy. Unfortunately, unless sound clinical evidence is obtained through a clinical trial, whether or not progesterone can indeed prevent miscarriage and preterm birth remains uncertain and thus is not a recommended treatment in women with early pregnancy bleeding. The purpose of our study is to evaluate the effect of progesterone for the prevention of miscarriage and preterm birth among women with early pregnancy bleeding. We will carry out a clinical trial in which 850 women will be randomized to receive either progesterone supplementation (425 women) or a similarly appearing placebo (425 women) and the outcome of their pregnancy will be compared.
Women presenting to Washington Hospital Center with fetal loss would be offered participation in the study. The objective is to determine if ccffDNA obtained from maternal blood is present in the setting of missed abortion or fetal demise. The investigators primary hypothesis is that cell free fetal DNA will be present in maternal blood in the presence of a failed pregnancy.
The purpose of this study is to conduct a randomized pilot trial in a sample of 60 women who meet criteria for Major Depressive Disorder (MDD) 1-18 months after a perinatal loss to demonstrate the feasibility of the proposed recruitment methods and research design, of the therapist training methods, and of delivering the adapted Interpersonal Psychotherapy group treatment. The investigators would like to examine preliminary evidence for the following hypotheses: - Perinatal-loss specific IPT-G will be more acceptable to women who experience MDD following perinatal loss than will Coping with Depression (CWD). - Perinatal-loss specific IPT-G will result in reduced time to remission from MDD and reduced depressive symptoms relative to CWD. - Perinatal-loss specific IPT-G will result in increased social support and social functioning, reduced couple distress, and reduced grief relative to CWD.
