IB research on assessments methods of uterine peristalsis before embryo transfer
Implantation rate after embryo transfer is a limiting factor in the success of IVF treatments. A high percentage of chromosomally normal embryos with good morphology fail to implant in apparently normal uterus thus efforts must be devoted to improving uterine receptivity in clinical practice. The uterine peristaltic wave frequency before embryo transfer has been inversely related to the clinical pregnancy and treatment with oxytocin antagonists has been suggested to improve the outcomes of In Vitro Fertilisation treatments. In the near future, the assessment of uterine contractions frequency could be a useful tool in the clinical practice.
