Advantages of three generations of IVF
Test tube baby technology is an important technology to help infertility patients realize their dreams. In the development of IVF technology, the emergence of three generations of IVF technology has brought new hope to those couples with genetic diseases. So, what are the three generations of IVF doing well? Next, we will discuss gene screening, genetic disease prevention, success rate and the development of domestic hospitals.
Gene screening
The third generation IVF technology uses DNA sequencing technology to carry out gene screening on embryos, which can more accurately detect genetic diseases on embryos and their carrier status. The traditional IVF technology can only detect chromosomal abnormalities, but the screening of small coding genes is very limited. The third-generation IVF technology not only covers the traditional chromosome detection, but also can detect gene mutations related to genetic diseases at the early embryonic development stage, providing more accurate screening results for couples and reducing the risk of transmission of genetic diseases.
In addition, the third-generation IVF technology can also carry out genotyping. Through genotyping, carriers and non carriers can be distinguished, and relevant family planning suggestions can be made to reduce the spread of genetic diseases. Compared with the traditional IVF technology, the third-generation IVF technology can be said to do better in gene screening.
Prevention of genetic diseases
The third generation IVF technology can not only screen genetic diseases in embryos, but also carry out genetic repair and genetic improvement. The possibility of further transmission of genetic diseases is fundamentally eliminated by removing embryos carrying genetic disease genes and selecting healthy embryos for implantation. At the same time, gene repair technology can also help couples with genetic disease genes to undergo treatment, making them more likely to have healthy offspring.
The advantage of this technology is not only reflected in the prevention of genetic diseases, but also allows couples to choose the genetic characteristics that they want their children to have, so as to achieve personalized reproductive selection. This is undoubtedly a great blessing for couples who want their children to have specific genetic characteristics.
Success rate
Compared with the traditional IVF technology, the three generation IVF technology has a higher success rate. The main reason lies in the accuracy of gene screening and the selection of higher embryo quality. Through gene screening, healthy embryos can be selected for implantation, which improves the success rate of IVF. In addition, the third generation IVF technology can also carry out embryo chromosome complete judgment to reduce the birth rate of deformed babies. These factors make the third-generation IVF technology have greater advantages in the success rate.
Development of domestic hospitals
At present, several hospitals in China have developed the third-generation IVF technology. For example, Beijing 301 Hospital, Ruijin Hospital affiliated to Shanghai Jiaotong University School of Medicine, and Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital affiliated to Zhejiang University School of Medicine have all carried out this technology. These hospitals, with their strong technical strength and rich clinical experience, have provided high-quality third-generation IVF services for infertile patients.
In addition to hospitals in Beijing, Shanghai, Zhejiang and other places, more and more medical institutions have begun to carry out third-generation IVF technology. This enables more patients to obtain the help of this technology and realize their own reproductive aspirations.
Summary
To sum up, the third-generation IVF technology has shown great advantages in gene screening, genetic disease prevention, success rate and the development of domestic hospitals. With the continuous progress of technology and the continuous development of medical practice, it is believed that the third-generation IVF technology will bring good news to more couples and help them realize their dreams.
