Summary

Single embryo transfer (SET) has been advocated as a means of reducing the risk of multiple pregnancies, but has meant a reduction in pregnancy risk per embryo transfer. Embryo aneuploidy has been cited as the primary reason for the low embryo implantation achieved in human IVF. In the majority of IVF programs embryo selection has mainly been based on the microscopic assessments embryo. Culturing embryos to the blastocyst stage as a selection mechanism has seen an increase in implantation rates, presumably indicating that morphologically normal blastocysts formed by day 5 of culture may have a reduced aneuploidy rate. Morphological normality does, however, not completely preclude aneuploidy, with many transferred and cryopreserved embryo bearing factors that may hold an increased risk for implantation failure and miscarriage.

To select the conditions for single blastocyst transfer that will significantly improve reproductive outcomes; increased implantation, reduced pregnancy loss and increased live birth rates.
