Is the success rate of the third generation of IVF improved?
Test tube baby technology is a kind of assisted reproductive technology, which is widely used in the treatment of infertility couples to have healthy babies. With the continuous progress of science and technology, IVF technology is also developing. The introduction of the third generation of IVF technology has brought higher hopes. This article will discuss how to improve the success rate of the third generation of IVF from many aspects.
Progress in embryo screening technology
Embryo screening is one of the key steps for the success of IVF. The third generation of IVF technology uses a new generation of gene sequencing technology, which significantly improves the accuracy and reliability of embryo screening. This technology can detect genetic problems such as chromosome abnormalities and single gene diseases of embryos, help select embryos with normal genetic background for transplantation, and thus improve the success rate of pregnancy. For example, the research of American hospitals shows that the pregnancy success rate has increased by more than 20% after the use of the third generation IVF technology.
In addition, the third generation IVF technology can also perform functional screening on embryos, and select embryos with high potential for transplantation by evaluating the metabolic status, cell vitality and other indicators of embryos, so as to further improve the success rate. The introduction of these new screening technologies has significantly improved the success rate of IVF technology.
Improvement of cultivation technology
In vitro culture environment, embryos need to provide appropriate nutrition and environmental conditions to ensure their normal growth and development. The third generation IVF technology introduces more advanced embryo culture technologies, such as continuous culture system and microfluidic technology, to provide culture conditions closer to the in vivo environment. The continuous culture system can continuously monitor the growth of embryos, adjust the culture conditions, and provide the most suitable environment, thus improving the survival rate and quality of embryos.
Microfluidic technology is a micro environmental culture system, which can simulate the structure of blood vessels and nutrient supply in vivo, so that embryos can get better nutrient supply and eliminate metabolites. Studies have shown that the embryo culture system using microfluidic technology can increase the implantation rate and pregnancy success rate. Therefore, the improvement of culture technology in the third generation IVF technology is also an important reason for the improvement of success rate.
Optimization of transplantation technology
The environment of embryo transfer also has an important impact on the success of IVF. The third generation of IVF technology has introduced more sophisticated embryo transfer technologies, such as ultrasound guided embryo transfer, intrauterine fluid retention technology, etc. Ultrasound guided embryo transfer can ensure the accurate location and placement of embryos and improve the success rate of transfer. Endometrial fluid retention technology can increase the thickness of endometrium and blood perfusion, and improve the implantation and survival rate of embryos.
In addition, the third generation of IVF technology has also carried out fine regulation on the timing of transplantation. According to the growth of the embryo and the physiological condition of the mother, choose the most suitable transfer time to make the embryo grow and develop in the most suitable environment. The improvement of these transplantation techniques not only improves the success rate of pregnancy, but also reduces the complications after transplantation.
conclusion
In conclusion, the success rate of the third generation of IVF has been significantly improved. The progress of embryo screening technology, the improvement of culture technology and the optimization of transfer technology have all played a positive role in the success rate of IVF. With the continuous progress of science and technology, it is believed that the success rate of the third generation IVF technology will be further improved, bringing hope to more infertile couples.
