What should be paid attention to in vitro embryo transfer
Test tube baby is a method of cultivating embryos in vitro and transplanting them back to the mother through artificial pregnancy technology to help infertile couples achieve fertility. Embryo transfer is a key step in the process of IVF, and the following aspects need special attention.
Hospital selection
Before IVF embryo transfer, it is very important to select a standard, authoritative and advanced medical institution. First, a hospital with relevant license should be selected to ensure its legitimacy, such as Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Shanghai East China Hospital, etc. Secondly, understanding the professional level and success rate of the hospital and consulting the experience and evaluation of other patients can help you make a wise choice. In addition, choose a hospital close to home to facilitate daily follow-up and inspection.
Patient's physical condition
Before IVF embryo transfer, the patient's physical condition plays an important role in the success rate of transfer. Female patients need a comprehensive physical examination, including gynecology, endocrinology, immunity and other aspects, to ensure their health. In addition, patients also need to carry out necessary medical history investigation, such as whether they have disease, past surgical history, medication, etc. These factors may have an impact on the success rate of transplantation.
In addition, patients with uterine abnormalities, tubal obstruction, endometriosis and other conditions may need surgical treatment or auxiliary technical support to improve the success rate of transplantation. Therefore, it is very important to treat and repair the disease in time before embryo transfer.
Embryonic selection
Embryo selection is an important part of IVF embryo transfer. Embryo quality and genetic traits play a decisive role in the success rate of embryo transfer. On the one hand, the quality of embryos is one of the important indicators to evaluate the success of transplantation. The better the quality, the higher the success rate of transplantation. Generally, 7 to 8 days of blastocyst transfer will achieve better results.
On the other hand, considering the genetic characteristics, if both parties have some genetic diseases or have a family history of diseases, they can carry out embryonic gene testing, screen healthy embryos for transplantation, and avoid the inheritance of diseases. This technology, called "genetic diagnosis", can improve the success rate of embryo transfer and the health of infants.
Migration operation
The operation of IVF embryo transfer needs to be completed by experienced doctors. During transplantation, doctors will use catheters to implant embryos into the mother's uterus, which requires very careful and precise procedures. Doctors should ensure the location and quality of embryos and provide a certain rest time after transplantation to improve the chances of successful transplantation.
Nursing after transplantation is also very important. Patients should follow the doctor's instructions, take medicine on time, keep warm, and avoid overwork and tension. In addition, regular reexamination and follow-up are critical to the monitoring and management of transplant pregnancy, which helps to identify and deal with any potential problems in a timely manner.
Summary
The embryo transfer of IVF is an important step to achieve fertility, which requires careful attention in selecting hospitals, paying attention to patients' physical conditions, embryo selection and transfer operations. The correct selection of hospitals and preoperative preparation play an important role in the success rate of transplantation. The quality of embryos and genetic status determine the health of infants. The experience and skills of doctors in operation are also crucial. Only when these factors are fully considered, can patients achieve a higher success rate and healthy babies in IVF embryo transfer.
