Legal provisions on three generations of IVF twins in China
In China, the legal provisions of three generations of IVF twins mainly involve the use, legality, ethics and morality of reproductive medicine technology. The following will elaborate on these regulations from four aspects: legal supervision, hospital access qualification, genetic screening, and supervision and management.
1、 Legal supervision
In China, the legal supervision of three generations of IVF twins is mainly carried out through the health administrative department. According to the Measures for the Administration of Reproductive Technology, any medical institution must obtain the corresponding license and operate in strict accordance with the relevant regulations before carrying out the third generation IVF twins technology. In addition, in accordance with the provisions of relevant national laws and regulations, it is also necessary to clarify the family planning and reproductive rights and ensure the legitimate identity and protection of rights and interests of infants.
At the same time, relevant laws also clearly stipulate legal acts and severely punish illegal acts. Unlicensed institutions or individuals engaged in third-generation IVF twin technology will be subject to legal sanctions, including fines, license revocation and other related penalties.
2、 Hospital access qualification
In order to ensure the safety and legitimacy of the third-generation IVF twin technology, China has set strict qualification requirements. Only hospitals that meet relevant conditions and obtain permits can carry out the operation of this technology. At present, there are many hospitals in China with the technical qualification of third-generation IVF twins, such as Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Fudan University Affiliated Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, etc. These hospitals need to perform a series of approval procedures, including the review of technical equipment, professionals and other conditions.
At the same time, China also regularly supervises and evaluates the technology of third-generation IVF twins in hospitals to ensure that the operation process strictly complies with laws and regulations, and to protect the legitimate rights and interests of patients.
3、 Genetic screening
Genetic screening is an important part of the three generation IVF twins technology in China. According to relevant laws and regulations, the third generation IVF twin technology must be operated according to certain genetic screening procedures to ensure the health of infants.
In genetic screening, doctors will perform gene testing on parents and embryos to screen for genetic diseases and defects. Only when it is confirmed that the genetic status of the embryo is normal and there is no risk of serious genetic disease, can the transfer and pregnancy process continue.
4、 Supervision and management
In order to ensure the quality and safety of the third generation IVF twin technology, China has also established a supervision and management mechanism. The National Health Commission and local health administrative departments are responsible for supervising and managing the technical operation of the third generation IVF twins in hospitals.
In the supervision and management, the health administrative departments at all levels will carry out on-site inspection, regular assessment, and maintain communication with the hospital through telephone, network and other ways to ensure that the hospital operation meets the requirements. At the same time, relevant departments will immediately take corresponding punishment measures for any illegal operation or behavior that does not meet the legal requirements.
Summary
China's third-generation IVF twin technology mainly involves legal supervision, hospital access qualification, genetic screening, supervision and management in terms of legal provisions. These regulations aim to ensure the legality, safety and morality of technology, and ensure the health and rights of infants. At the same time, China is also committed to strengthening supervision and management, ensuring that hospital operations meet requirements through strict audit and regular evaluation.
