    ET

    87,5% of all patients who underwent OPU had embryos

    available of for transfer 21,1% conceived

    Tremendous advances have been made in ART but basic

    method of ET remains essentially unchanged

    (SART survey, 1992)

    Function of ET

    Timing of ET Sinchronicity

    To safely place cultured embryoswithin the uterine cavity

    ET Procedure 1

    In the operating theater under sterile condition

    Identity of patient is checked

    The embryologist explains about the embryos:

    Fertilization & cleavage of embryos

    Quality and number to be transfered

    ET Procedure 2

    Lithotomy

    Speculum, lubricated with saline solution vagina

    Cervix is exposed gently and any vaginal and cervical secretion

    are gently removed, moistened with medium

    Dummy / Mock ET catheter:

    Distorted canal can be identified

    Road map delineated in anticipation of actual ET

    ET Procedure 3

    The embryos are identified by the embryologist and scored

    and their details are entered into the log

    Those embryos that are to be transferred are placed into a

    drop of medium

    A Frydman embryo transfer catheter is used for transfer

    ET Procedure 4

    The catheter + 1ml tuberculin syringe and flushed through

    with medium.

    The embryo(s) are drawn up into the already charge catheter

    The catheter is taken through to the theater and passed to the

    surgeon

    The catheter is gently maneuvered through the cervical canal

    and into the uterus

    ET Procedure 5

    The tip of catheter can be placed in the mid or low-mid

    uterine cavity

    5-5,5 cm from the external cx os or

    2 cm below uterine fundus

    When operator is confident that catheter is properly placed,

    the embryologist or surgeon can slowly & gently inject the

    embryo into uterus

    ET Procedure 6

    Catheter is left in position for a few moments, then gently -

    slowly removed

    Catheter is returned to the lab, checked to ensure that

    embryo have not been retained

    Blastocyst Culture Transfer vs embryo

    Transfer

    High-order multiple preg

    Preg rate probably not increased

    Should all embryos be grown to blastocyst? NO!

    Variability in blastocyst culture success

    Lower preg rates with frozen/thaw blastocysts

    Culture success rate 30 - 60%

    ET complications

    1. Difficult transfer

    2. Mucus present on the catheter after transfer

    3. Multiple attempts to correctly place the catheter

    4. Blood present on the catheter after transfer

    5. Embryos remaining in the catheter after transfer

    Factors affecting success of ET

    1990 - 2000:

    2 Chocrane systematic reviews

    5 meta-analysis

    34 RCT

    1) Pre-transfer factors

    2) Transfer factors

    3) Post-transfer factors

    PRE-TRANSFER

    1. Trial (dummy, mock) transfer

    Trial ET:

    determines the most suitable catheter & avoids unexpected difficult & failed ET

    (Mansour et al, 1990)

    Clinical Preg Rate

    Clinical Implantation Rate

    Trial

    No Trial

    2. The best day for embryo transfer

    Day-2 vs day-3 ET:

    (Oatway et al, 2004, Chocrane library)

    Day-2 ET

    Day-3 ET

    vs

    clinical PR

    improvement in live birth??

    2. The best day for embryo transfer

    Day-5 vs day-3 ET

    (Sallamet al, 2003; metaanalysis)

    Day-5

    Day-3

    11/21/20

    3. Cervical infection

    Cervical infection diminishes the PR & IRs

    (Sallamet al , 2003; meta-analysis)

    Positive culture

    Negative culture

    PR: 21 %

    PR: 38.4 %

    vs

    4. Use of antibiotics

    The prescription of Amoxicillin + Clauvulanic acid from the

    day of OPU to 6 days

    Peikrishvili et al, 2004

    Antibiotis does not improve the implantation rate

    5. The use of fibrin sealant

    Felchtinger et al,1992:

    Fibrin sealant Ectopic preg: completely avoided

    Fibrin sealant Advantageous only in elderly women (39-42 y)

    NO advantageous in younger patients (39-42 y)

    Ben-Rafael et al, 1995:

    Fibrin sealant

    A type of surgical glue that is made from human blood-clotting proteins,and that is used during surgery to control bleeding

    The journal Thrombosis and Haemostasis 1995

    Ready to apply in minutesRemains manipulable for a short time after application

    Solidifies relatively quickly

    Usable

    High internal bonding strengthHigh surface adherence strengthEnhances clot formationEnhances wound healingEnhances tissue regeneration

    Effective

    Components and degradation products would pose nodangers, such as viral disease transmission

    Safe

    6. Embryo Glue Medium

    Embryo Glue medium is an ET medium containing highamount ofhyaluronon

    Karimian et al (2004), Enginsu et al (2004), Mardesic et al (2004)

    Hyaluronon in thae culture media Has no benefit on PR or IR

    7. Bladder filling:

    (Mitchell et al, 1989)

    With a filled bladder

    Without a filled bladder

    No significant differences in difficultiesvs

    8. Vigorous flushing of the cervical canal

    (Sallam et al, 2000)

    Flushing culture medium before ET Do not improve the clinical PR

    9. Type of ET catheter:

    (Wisanto et al, 1989)

    The Frydman catheter

    The Wallace catheter

    The TDT catheter

    PR: 32%/ET

    PR: 19%/ET

    PR: 9%/ET

    The choice of catheter did not affect PR

    3. Difficult ET:

    Difficult ET diminish the P & IR significantly

    (Meta-analysis, Sallam et al, 2003)

    difficult transfers

    easy transfers

    PR 22.3%

    PR 31.0%

    POST-TRANSFER

    Slow withdrawal of the ET catheter

    PR: NO statistically significant

    Slow withdrawal

    immediately after ET

    30 second delay

    2. Mechanical pressure on the portiovaginalis

    of the cervix:

    Applying gentle mechanical pressure on the portiovaginalis of

    the cervix using the vaginal speculum during & after

    transferring the embryo

    Significantly improved the clinical P & IR

    (Mansour, 2004)

    Bed restfollowing ET

    24 h bed rest after ET 20 min rest period

    Not associated with a better outcome

    Prolonged bed rest does not influence the IR

    CONCLUSION

    Pregnancy rates are significantly increasedwhen

    1. Trial transfer

    2. Soft ET catheter

    3. UGET

    4. Deposition of the embryo 2 cm below the uterine fundus

    5. Gentle mechanical pressure on the portiovaginalis cervix
