Research Question: What are the trends and impact of new technologies on the effectiveness and safety of assisted reproductive technology (ART) performed in Latin America during 2021?
Design: This was a retrospective collection of cycle-based multinational data obtained from ART procedures performed by 204 accredited institutions in 16 countries.
Results: In total 127,351 initiated cycles resulted in 20,032 deliveries and 22,708 births. ART utilization showed great variability, from 623.

Research Question: Is embryo selection by Dana (automatic software for embryo evaluation) associated with a higher implantation rate in IVF treatments?
Design: A three-phase study for Dana system's validation: creation of a data-cloud of known implantation data (KID) embryos from 1676 transferred embryos; embryo evaluation by Dana considering manual annotations and embryo development videos (389 transferred embryos); and validation of Dana automatic selection, without embryologist's intervention (147 transferred embryos); RESULTS: The implantation rate of the 1021 KID embryos from phase 1 served to set four grades of embryos referring to implantation rate: A = 34%, B = 25%, C = 24%, and D = 19%. Phase 2: a classification ranking according to the unit average distance (UAD) and implantation potential was established: top (UAD ≤0.50), high (UAD = 0.
