Abstract:

Despite the improvement of correction methods of fertility disorders and pre-conceptional preparation of the couple, the search for the new ways to enhance the efficiency of assisted reproductive technologies has recently become an urgent issue. The paper gives an overview of modern ways to assess the quality of embryos and their influence on the results of assisted reproductive technologies. The special attention is given to new-type incubators with built-in time-lapse-monitoring system (system of embryo development shot), which help embryologists analyze the embryo development dynamics from fertilization to blastocyst formation without extracting embryos from the incubator. In these studies, nowadays, there is no proof of the efficacy of time-lapse systems for practical applications in vitro fertilisation (IVF) laboratories, due to limited, varied and contradictory data. Therefore, the prospects for the development of this problem are to study and implement the efficacy indicators of time-lapse system to select the highest-quality embryo and to increase the pregnancy rate in IVF cycles.

Keywords:

embryo cultivation
time-lapse system (an embryo development snapshot system)
embryo incubators
embryo culturing
quality of embryos
embryo selection
embryo transfer
