Comparison of Clinical Outcomes, Risks, and Costs for 20,910 Donor In Vitro Fertilization and 16,850 Donor Artificial Insemination Treatment Cycles: A Retrospective Analysis in China.

ABSTRACT:

Purpose

To evaluate the effectiveness of donor in vitro fertilization (IVF-D) and donor artificial insemination (AI-D) in clinical outcomes, risks, and costs.

Methods

This study analyzed the cycle changes and clinical outcomes in 20,910 IVF-D and 16,850 AI-D cycles between 2013 and 2021 in the Reproductive and Genetic Hospital of CITIC-Xiangya. A cost-effectiveness analysis was performed to evaluate the costs per couple and per live birth cycle in the two treatment groups.

Results

IVF-D had higher pregnancy and live birth rates than AI-D (p < 0.001). The cumulative pregnancy and live birth rates for three AI-D cycles were 41.01% and 32.42%, respectively, higher than the rates for one or two AI-D cycles. The multiple birth and birth defect rate of AI-D was lower than that of IVF-D significantly. IVF-D mean cost per couple was higher than that of AI-D (CNY32,575 vs. CNY11,062, p < 0.001), with a mean cost difference of CNY21,513 (95% confidence interval, CNY20,517-22,508). The mean costs per live birth cycle for IVF-D and AI-D were CNY49,411 and CNY31,246, respectively.

Conclusion

AI-D is more cost-effective and poses a lower risk for infertility couples than IVF-D, and patients should undergo three AI-D cycles to obtain the highest success rate.

Project description:BackgroundThe impact of donor sperm on pregnancy outcomes is controversial. The aim of this study was to investigate whether donor sperm in in vitro fertilization (IVF)/intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) treatment could reduce the rate of live births or increase the incidence of adverse pregnancy outcomes and birth defects in neonates.MethodsThis single-centre, retrospective cohort study included 1,559 patients with infertility who received donor sperm at our hospital from 2015 to 2019. All the patients received fresh embryos and underwent first-cycle transfer. After propensity score matching, 4,677 controls who received their partners' sperm were matched at 1:3. Clinical pregnancy, perinatal, and neonatal outcomes were compared between the donor sperm and partner sperm groups.ResultsThe embryo development was better in the donor sperm group than in the partner sperm group. The high-quality embryo and available embryo rates were significantly higher in the donor sperm group (P<0.05 for both groups). The rate of high-quality embryos transferred from the donor sperm group was higher than that from the partner sperm group (P<0.05). The clinical pregnancy (62.99% vs. 59.65%; P=0.02) and live birth (54.65% vs. 51.59%; P=0.036) rates were higher in the donor sperm group. After adjusting for confounding factors, no significant difference in live birth rates was observed between the two groups (adjusted P=0.057). The low birthweight (18.21% vs. 21.39%; P=0.023) and small for gestational age (SGA) (7.60% vs. 11.97%; P<0.001) rates were lower in the donor sperm group. To exclude the effect of multiple pregnancies, we evaluated neonatal outcomes of singleton pregnancies. No significant differences were noted in preterm and very preterm birth, SGA, mean birthweight, high birthweight, and low birth weight (LBW) and very low birth weight (VLBW) rates (P>0.05 for both groups). Further, no significant between group differences were observed in the ectopic pregnancy rate, early and late spontaneous abortion rates, gestational age, rate of large for gestational age (LGA), and neonatal defects.ConclusionsCompared with partner sperm, donor sperm did not reduce live birth rate and did not increase neonatal LBW or low birth defects.

Project description:ObjectiveTo compare success rates, associated risks and cost-effectiveness between intrauterine insemination (IUI) and in vitro fertilisation (IVF).DesignRetrospective observational study.SettingThe UK from 2012 to 2016.ParticipantsData from Human Fertilisation and Embryology Authority's freedom of information request for 2012-2016 for IVF/ICSI (intracytoplasmic sperm injection)and IUI as practiced in 319 105 IVF/ICSI and 30 669 IUI cycles. Direct-cost calculations for maternal and neonatal expenditure per live birth (LB) was constructed using the cost of multiple birth model, with inflation-adjusted Bank of England index-linked data. A second direct-cost analysis evaluating the incremental cost-effective ratio (ICER) was modelled using the 2016 national mean (baseline) IVF and IUI success rates.Outcome measuresLB, risks from IVF and IUI, and costs to gain 1 LB.ResultsThis largest comprehensive analysis integrating success, risks and costs at a national level shows IUI is safer and more cost-effective than IVF treatment.IVF LB/cycle success was significantly better than IUI at 26.96% versus 11.49% (p<0.001) but the IUI success is much closer to IVF at 2.35:1, than previously considered. IVF remains a significant source of multiple gestation pregnancy (MGP) compared with IUI (RR (Relative Risk): 1.45 (1.31 to 1.60), p<0.001) as was the rate of twins (RR: 1.58, p<0.001).In 2016, IVF maternal and neonatal cost was £115 082 017 compared with £2 940 196 for IUI and this MGP-related perinatal cost is absorbed by the National Health Services. At baseline tariffs and success rates IUI was £42 558 cheaper than IVF to deliver 1LB with enhanced benefits with small improvements in IUI. Reliable levels of IVF-related MGP, OHSS (ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome), fetal reductions and terminations are revealed.ConclusionIUI success rates are much closer to IVF than previously reported, more cost-effective in delivering 1 LB, and associated with lower risk of complications for maternal and neonatal complications. It is prudent to offer IUI before IVF nationally.
