Risk of placing tubes to drain ascites associated with test tube infants
IVF is a kind of assisted reproductive technology, which has helped many infertile patients achieve their desire to have children. However, there may be some complications during tube drainage of IVF, one of which is ascites. Ascites refers to the accumulation of too much fluid in the abdominal cavity, which may affect the success rate of IVF and the health of mothers and infants. This article will discuss the risk of placing tubes to drain ascites related to test tube infants from various aspects.

1. Risk of tubal perforation
In the process of placing tube to drain test tube babies, tubal perforation may occur. Oviduct perforation is usually caused by operational errors or other reasons. Once it occurs, it will lead to fluid overflow in the abdominal cavity, and then form ascites. At the same time, tubal perforation may also lead to increased risk of visceral injury and infection, which may seriously affect the health of patients.
In addition, tubal perforation may also affect the success rate of IVF. Because the invasion of ascites will change the position of the uterus and ovary, affecting the implantation and development of the embryo. Therefore, doctors should have good skills and experience when placing tubes to drain test tube babies, so as to reduce the risk of tubal perforation.
2. Risk of secondary infection
Improper operation or inadequate disinfection during drainage may lead to bacterial infection. Once intra-abdominal infection occurs, it will not only cause ascites, but also pose a threat to the health of patients. Bacterial infection can lead to fever, abdominal pain, abdominal distension and other symptoms, and even peritonitis, abscess and other complications in severe cases.
In order to reduce the risk of infection, doctors will take necessary preventive measures for patients before placing tubes to drain test tube babies, such as disinfection and cleaning, use of sterile instruments, etc. At the same time, patients need to closely observe whether there are signs of infection, such as fever, local redness and swelling, and seek medical advice in time to prevent the spread of infection.
3. Risk of postoperative peritoneal leakage
Abdominal fluid leakage may occur after placing tube to drain test tube babies. Peritoneal fluid leakage refers to the leakage of intraperitoneal fluid from the wound or other unexpected channels after surgery. This may be caused by incorrect operation or poor wound healing. Peritoneal fluid leakage will not only increase the risk of infection, but also may lead to wound dehiscence and prolong the recovery time after surgery.
In order to prevent and reduce the risk of peritoneal leakage, doctors will strictly control the operation during the operation to minimize the number of injuries and wounds. After the operation, the patient needs regular reexamination to timely find and deal with any symptoms of peritoneal leakage.
4. Risk of pregnancy complications
After the tube is successfully placed to drain the test tube baby, some complications may occur during pregnancy, the most common of which are pregnancy hypertension, gestational diabetes and placental insufficiency. These complications may lead to ascites and increase the risk of puerpera and fetus.
In order to reduce the risk of complications, doctors will monitor and manage IVF pregnancy in the whole process. Regular prenatal examination shall be carried out to detect and deal with any abnormalities in time to ensure the health of mothers and babies.
summary
The risks of tube placement for the drainage of test tube infant related ascites mainly include oviduct perforation, secondary infection, postoperative peritoneal fluid leakage and pregnancy complications. Doctors should pay attention to operation skills during operation to avoid injury or infection. At the same time, patients need to closely observe the symptoms of infection and peritoneal leakage after surgery, and seek medical advice in time. During pregnancy, regular prenatal examination and management are required to reduce the risk of complications. Through scientific prevention and management measures, the success rate of IVF and the health of mothers and infants can be guaranteed to the greatest extent.
