Effect of Follicular Flushing in Patients With Mono-follicular Growth Undergoing In Vitro Fertilization

NCT03831542 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 71

Last updated 2019-05-07

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Retrieval of an oocyte from a follicle relies on the release of the cumulus-oocyte-complex (COC) from the follicular wall into the lumen, thereby allowing aspiration by a needle. Flushing the follicle with multiple aspirations from the same follicle is used as a means to increase the ratio of COC per aspirated follicle. Data showed that follicular flushing is not superior to direct aspiration either in normally responding patients or in poor responders undergoing in vitro fertilization (IVF). There is no data in the literature regarding the issue in patients with mono-follicular growth. Direct aspiration or repeatedly flushing the follicle for those with a single follicle will be investigated.
