Effect of Acupuncture on the Clinical Outcome of IVF-ET in Patients With Recurrent Implantation Failure

Overview

In order to explore the effect of acupuncture on the clinical outcome of IVF-ET in patients with recurrent implantation failure, the patients divide into the experimental group or the control group. In the experimental group, those patients undergo acupuncture at the beginning of embryo transfer cycle three times a week until 14 days after embryo transfer. In the control group, those patients do not receive any treatments during embryo transfer cycle. Statistical analysis of the two groups of primary endpoint and secondary endpoint are done.

In the field of assisted reproduction techonology, there are still 10% of patients with recurrent implantation failure. In order to explore the effect of acupuncture on the clinical outcome of IVF-ET in patients with recurrent implantation failure, the patients divide into the experimental group or the control group. In the experimental group, those patients undergo acupuncture at the beginning of embryo transfer cycle three times a week until 14 days after embryo transfer. In the control group, those patients do not receive any treatments during embryo transfer cycle. Both of two group patients are checked including endometrial receptivity index and fill in SAS anxiety scale form. Statistical analysis of the two groups of primary endpoint (clinical pregnancy rate) and secondary endpoint (embryo implantation rate, biochemical pregnancy rate, early pregnancy loss rate, ongoing pregnancy rate, live birth rate)are done.
