Article Synopsis
- The study investigated the use and outcomes of assisted reproductive technology (ART) in Latin America during 2020, analyzing data from 188 institutions across 16 countries.
- A total of 87,732 ART cycles were initiated, resulting in 12,778 deliveries and showing significant regional contributions, particularly from Brazil, Mexico, and Argentina.
- Key findings highlight that older women (≥40 years) increasingly used ART, with higher delivery rates associated with frozen embryo transfers and preimplantation genetic testing, while multiple births and perinatal mortality rates raised concerns.
Article Synopsis
- A study analyzed the use, effectiveness, and safety of assisted reproductive technology (ART) in Latin America, collecting data from 188 institutions across 16 countries in 2020.
- A total of 87,732 ART cycles led to 12,778 deliveries, with significant contributions from Brazil, Mexico, and Argentina; Uruguay had the highest cycles per million inhabitants.
- The results indicated varying delivery rates depending on factors like age, type of embryo transfer, and use of preimplantation genetic testing, with multiple births and perinatal mortality rates increasing with certain transfer methods.
