4. 17. Women's experience of pain and pain relief in assisted reproductive technology

   Author : Ann-Louise Gejervall; Göteborgs universitet; []
   Keywords : oocyte retrieval; pain relief; randomized controlled trial; pain; fertilization rate; embryo development; Visual Analogue Scale;

   Abstract : The overall aim of this thesis was to evaluate and compare different methods for pain relief during oocyte retrieval and to study women’s expectations and experiences of pain during oocyte retrieval in conjunction with in vitro fertilization. Paper I, an open prospective randomized controlled trial, including 160 women had the primary aims of comparing the pain relieving effects of electro-acupuncture and conventional analgesia, comprising opiates, in conjunction with oocyte retrieval, and to compare post-operative well-being between groups.

7. 20. New micromanipulative techniques in reproductive biology

   Author : José Inzunza; Karolinska Institutet; Karolinska Institutet; []
   Keywords : ;

   Abstract : New micro manipulative techniques have facilitated development to help patients who suffer from infertility and spontaneous abortion, as well as those who carry severe genetic diseases and have risks of delivering an affected child. Preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD), which is based on obtaining blastomere biopsy from an eight-cell embryo, has made it possible to diagnose severe defects caused by a genetic factor. READ MORE
