Success Rates - SGF Statistics

Introduction

This data provides comprehensive information and success rates for all initiated IVF cycles at Shady Grove Fertility Reproductive Science Center between January 1, 2007 and December 31, 2007.

Interpreting The Success of IVF

Various percentages are used to gauge the expected success of IVF cycles. The delivery rate per initiated cycle is important to each individual patient. The major physical and financial commitment to an IVF cycle occurs with the egg retrieval, therefore we feel that the delivery rate per retrieval is the most important number to consider. This number does not take the cancellation rate into account. Each of these statistics should be calculated for the patients specific age, diagnosis, cycle number, and prognosis group.
