What is the foreign name of IVF
IVF baby, namely IVF baby under assisted reproductive technology, is a kind of fertility mode by combining sperm and egg in vitro and cultivating them to the embryonic stage, and then transferring the embryo to the mother's uterus. Internationally, IVF is also called "In vitro fertilization (IVF)" or "Test tube baby", which have been widely accepted and used.
Technical process of IVF
The technological process of IVF mainly includes egg collection, sperm collection, in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. First, women need to receive hormone therapy to promote the growth of eggs, and then collect mature eggs through minimally invasive surgery. At the same time, men need to provide sperm samples. Next, the collected eggs and sperm are combined in the laboratory for in vitro fertilization. After the embryo has grown to an appropriate stage, the doctor will transfer the embryo to the mother's uterus through hysteroscopy or catheter, hoping that it can be successfully implanted.
At present, there are many hospitals and professional institutions worldwide that can implement IVF technology. Among them, the American Society for Infant Birth and Assisted Reproduction Technology (SART) and the European Society for Human Assisted Reproduction and Embryology (ESHRE) in Europe are authoritative institutions focusing on assisted reproduction, and they play an important role in guiding the technical specifications of IVF.
Medical conditions and success rate of IVF
The success rate of IVF is affected by many factors, including female age, egg quality, uterine environment, etc. Generally speaking, young couples have a higher success rate. In addition, the medical condition of IVF is also one of the important factors to ensure success.
Test tube babies need to be operated in professional assisted reproduction centers or hospitals, and these medical institutions must have the corresponding technology and equipment, such as operating rooms for egg collection, sperm laboratories and incubators for embryo culture. In addition, professional doctors and nurses provide professional medical services and support throughout the process to ensure the safety and success rate of the operation.
In recent years, with the development of science and technology, IVF technology has been greatly developed and improved in the medical community. Through the improvement of technology and the continuous improvement of laboratory environment, the success rate of IVF has gradually increased, which has realized the birth dream for many infertile couples.
Influence of IVF technology on society
The emergence of IVF technology has brought significant social impact. First of all, for couples who cannot conceive naturally, IVF technology is the light of hope for them to achieve their reproductive aspirations, bringing them great joy and happiness. Secondly, IVF technology has also made more attention and research on infertility, and promoted the further development of assisted reproductive technology in the medical field.
However, IVF technology has also triggered discussions on some social and ethical issues, such as the bioethics of embryos, genetic screening, etc. Therefore, more social and ethical norms need to be formulated and guided for the promotion and application of IVF technology.
summary
In vitro fertilization (IVF) is an in vitro fertilization (IVF) baby under assisted reproductive technology, which is internationally known as "In vitro fertilization (IVF)" or "Test tube baby". The technological process of IVF includes egg collection, sperm collection, in vitro fertilization and embryo transfer. The success rate of IVF is affected by many factors. Medical conditions and technical level are one of the important factors to ensure success. The emergence of IVF technology has had a significant impact on couples, society and the medical community, and has also triggered some thinking and discussion on ethical issues. Therefore, when promoting and applying IVF technology, we need to comprehensively consider medical, social and ethical factors.
