There are no current standardized methods for outcomes based quality control monitoring of embryo culture media.

There is no standardized reporting method for egg (oocyte) banks that sell vitrified (a method of quick freezing) donor oocytes to patients. This is a proposed option.

IVF stimulation outcomes can be evaluated by graphing the number of oocytes retrieved based on the AMH (anti-mullerian hormone) level.

A universal embryo labeling protocol is needed to decrease the risk of lab errors such as inadvertent warming or transfer of an unintended embryo.

There is no common generally accepted way to compare incubator performance. Our lab uses 8 Miri incubators.

Our clinic and lab have made several changes to improve outcomes of euploid embryo transfers over the past several years.

We see approximately 15% of embryos that are thawed, biopsied, and refrozen undergo degeneration during the process.
