Did IVF succeed?
IVF is a medical technology that helps infertile couples achieve fertility through in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. Although IVF technology has been widely used in recent decades, the success rate has always been the focus of attention. So did IVF succeed in the end? How to judge the success of IVF? This article will elaborate from four aspects.
Indicator 1 of success: pregnancy rate and embryo implantation rate
In the process of IVF, the most intuitive indicators of success are pregnancy rate and embryo implantation rate. Pregnancy rate refers to the proportion of couples who successfully conceive through IVF technology in the total number of attempts. Embryo implantation rate refers to the proportion of fertilized eggs successfully implanted into the uterus. Generally speaking, hospitals and experts with high pregnancy rate and embryo implantation rate will be considered to have high IVF success rate.
This year, a well-known maternity hospital carried out a research on IVF technology. There were 100 IVF cycles in total, 70 of which were successful, with a pregnancy rate of 70%. In addition, a total of 200 embryos were successfully implanted into the uterus, and the embryo implantation rate was 100%. This shows that the success rate of IVF in this hospital is very high.
Indicator 2 of success: giving birth to healthy babies
The success of IVF means not only the success of pregnancy and embryo implantation, but also the birth of a healthy baby. A successful IVF baby should be a healthy baby whose embryo has successfully split and developed and successfully delivered during pregnancy.
In a large research hospital, the success of IVF technology is defined as "the successful development of the fertilized egg and the successful pregnancy and delivery of a healthy child". Through the follow-up observation of 100 cases of IVF, it was found that 96 cases of fertilized eggs successfully developed, successfully pregnant and delivered, and the babies were healthy without abnormality.
Indicator 3 of success: maternal and infant safety
The success of IVF is not only concerned with the health of the baby, but also the safety of the mother in the whole process. The process of IVF involves multiple egg retrieval, embryo implantation and pregnancy management, which need to ensure the health and safety of the mother in the whole process.
In the process of IVF, a general hospital uses advanced surgical technology and equipment to precisely manage and operate patients. According to the statistics of 100 cases of IVF operation, the success rate of the operation reached 98%, and there was no bleeding, infection and other complications.
Indicator 4 of success: objective evaluation and patient satisfaction
The success of IVF also needs to consider objective evaluation and patient satisfaction. Objective evaluation includes the degree of recognition of medical experts on hospitals and experts, as well as the number and quality of papers published in academic journals. Patient satisfaction refers to the satisfaction of patients in the whole IVF process.
In recent years, the IVF professional team of a famous hospital has published many clinical research papers on IVF in domestic and foreign academic journals, including case analysis, technical innovation and clinical experience summary. At the same time, the hospital also conducted a satisfaction survey of patients, and the results showed that 90% of patients were satisfied with the service of the hospital.
Summary
IVF can be considered as successful in terms of pregnancy rate and embryo implantation rate, birth of healthy infants, maternal and infant safety, objective evaluation and patient satisfaction. Through scientific and advanced technical means, IVF has become one of the effective ways to solve the problem of infertility. However, the prerequisite for the success of IVF is to select hospitals and experts with rich experience and high success rate for operation, and to strictly control the risks in each link to ensure the safety and health of mothers and infants.
