Embryo transfer<\/a> is the final step in any IVF treatment and may be one of the most crucial. For this reason, expertise and precision are critical for the success and optimal outcome of the treatment<\/strong>, leading to achieve better pregnancy and birth rates, while also maximizing women’s comfort.<\/p>\r\n

In the past, embryo transfer\u00a0effectiveness was determined by the number and quality of the embryos you could obtain, more than the accuracy and control on each procedure of the transfer itself. Nonetheless, factors as technology, materials or methodology employed have acquired more attention and importance<\/strong> with time, which is why today it is paramount for every center to use specific work protocols to avoid variability and to allow an adequate procedure for each case.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

Achieving the maximum comfort for the patient<\/strong><\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n

The experience and skill of the gynecologist are determining factors when it comes to performing this procedure, as the uterine or cervical anatomy of the patient is the most critical point when deciding on one type or another of catheter.<\/p>\r\n

When navigating through the cervix, we need materials that are both stiff and flexible to avoid harm or complications to the patient. However, the moment of embryo transfer is crucial, hence the experience, precision, and control of the gynecologist, combined with cutting-edge tools, are key factors<\/strong> for a process with successful outcomes.<\/p>\r\n

Currently, there are two types of ET catheters: straight and precurved.<\/strong> The choice of catheter would depend on the gynecologist experience and preferences.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
