Outcome measures

Primary outcome

Position of embryos.

Secondary outcome

Pregnancy rates.

Background summary

The embryo transfer is the final moment in IVF treatment that can be influenced by the physician. It has been shown that the position of the transferred embryos does influence pregnancy rates. We hypothesize that the electric device offers a more precise method of embryo transfer, leading to exact positioning of the embryos and thus to higher pregnancy rates.

Study objective

We hypothesize that the electric device offers a more standardized way of embryo transfer, resulting in higher pregnancy rates.
