Rescue in vitro maturation may increase the pregnancy outcomes among women undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection.

ABSTRACT:

Introduction

To investigate whether rescue in vitro maturation (R-IVM) improves the reproductive outcomes among women undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) after one oocyte retrieved cycle.

Methods

Between January 2019 and December 2020, 2602 women who underwent ICSI in the Reproductive Medicine Center of Tongji Hospital, Wuhan, China, were included in our retrospective cohort study. There were 2112 women undergoing only ICSI and 490 women with R-IVM followed by ICSI. The intermediate reproductive outcomes and pregnancy outcomes were assessed, including the number of normally fertilized embryos, number of cleaved embryos, number of good-quality embryos, number of day-3 available embryos, number of embryos cultured past day-3, number of blastocysts, number of ava
