Inspection contents of IVF after filing
After the IVF is filed, the hospital will carry out a series of inspections to ensure the safety and health of mothers and babies. Hereinafter, we will elaborate on four aspects: genetic examination, physical condition assessment, immune condition assessment and development assessment.
Genetic examination
Genetic examination is usually carried out through gene detection and analysis. Doctors will collect blood or saliva samples from both parents for genetic screening. This is to judge whether there is a risk of genetic disease on both sides, so as to prevent or intervene in advance. Common genetic diseases include thalassemia, congenital heart disease, etc. Through genetic examination, doctors can find the risk of genetic diseases as early as possible, and provide guidance for the healthy development of IVF.
In addition, genetic tests can help determine the sex of an embryo. Some families may have special requirements for the sex of the embryo, such as hoping to choose a boy or a girl. In the process of IVF, doctors can predict the sex of embryos through genetic examination to meet the needs of families.
Physical condition assessment
Physical condition assessment is mainly to check and assess various systems of IVF. The doctor will perform physical examination, including measuring height and weight, and checking the development of the skull. In addition, the skin, limbs, spine and other parts will be checked for abnormalities.
In the assessment of physical condition, doctors will also use modern medical imaging technology, such as ultrasound, X-ray, nuclear magnetic resonance, etc., to check internal organs and bones. These tests can help doctors judge whether IVF has structural abnormalities, such as heart defects, spina bifida, etc. Early detection and intervention can minimize the adverse effects of structural abnormalities on infants.
In addition, the physical condition assessment also includes checking the growth and development of the baby. The doctor will evaluate whether the growth curve of the baby conforms to the normal range according to the age and sex of the baby. Through growth and development assessment, doctors can find out whether the baby has growth retardation or abnormal growth as soon as possible.
Immune status check
The purpose of immune status test is to evaluate whether the immune system of IVF is healthy and can resist diseases. The doctor will carry out relevant tests of immune function, including blood test, lymphocyte subgroup analysis, etc. These tests can help doctors judge whether IVF has low immune function, and take timely measures to intervene.
For test tube babies, immune status examination is particularly important. They may have some risks of underdeveloped immune system or abnormal immune function. Therefore, through the inspection of immune status, doctors can find and deal with immune related problems as soon as possible to ensure the health of infants.
Developmental assessment
Developmental assessment is to assess the neural development of test tube babies. The doctor will make a series of observations and measurements to determine whether the baby is developing normally. This includes infant head control, eye tracking, language development, etc.
The development assessment is generally carried out at different stages of the baby's development, such as several months after birth, one year old, two years old, etc. Through the development assessment, doctors can find and intervene in the infant's development problems as early as possible, provide corresponding rehabilitation treatment programs, and promote the infant's neural development to the greatest extent.
summary
The examination of IVF after filing covers four aspects: genetic examination, physical condition assessment, immune condition assessment and development assessment. Through these examinations, doctors can fully understand the health status of IVF, and identify and deal with potential problems as soon as possible. The purpose of these examinations is to ensure that IVF babies can have a healthy and happy growth environment.
