Strongly Recommend Evaluation of Clinical Outcomes of IVF/ICSI with Cumulative Pregnancy Rate
Abstract
Strongly Recommend Evaluation of Clinical Outcomes of IVF/ICSI with Cumulative Pregnancy Rate
Objective: In order to reduce the multiple pregnancy rates, we strongly recommend the use of cumulative pregnancy rate after one oocytes retrieval cycle and all the available embryos transferred to assess the clinical outcomes of IVF/ICSI.
Methods: We estimated cumulative pregnancy rate per oocyte retrieval among patients undergoing IVF/ICSI in 2011 at our center. Couples were followed until either discontinuation (no embryo to transfer) or pregnancy with visualization of gestational sac on ultrasound. Analyses were stratified according to maternal age.
