Study Question: What are patients' and fertility staff views of talking about possible IVF/ICSI failure and need for multiple cycles in treatment planning?

Summary Answer: Healthcare professionals (HCPs) typically plan treatment on a cycle-by-cycle basis but HCPs and patients see benefits in talking about possible IVF/ICSI failure and the consequent need for multiple cycles to better prepare patients for this possibility, to support them through treatment challenges and to foster a sense of collaboration with the clinic in achieving the shared goal of treatment success.

What Is Known Already: Many patients need more than one round of IVF/ICSI stimulation to achieve their parenthood goals. About 60% of patients are willing to plan for multiple cycles of treatment in advance of treatment engagement.

UV Light Activated Multi-Cycle Photoelectric Properties of TiO₂ and CdS/TiO ₂ Films in Formaldehyde.

J Nanosci Nanotechnol

November 2021

Key Laboratory of Hunan Province on Information Photonics and Freespace Optical Communications, School of Physics and Electronic Science, Hunan Institute of Science and Technology, Yueyang 414006, China.

In this work, UV light activated multi-cycle photoelectric properties of TiO₂ and CdS/TiO₂ films in formaldehyde were researched. TiO₂ film was prepared by screen printing, CdS/TiO₂ compounded film was synthesized by SILAR method. XRD and FE-SEM was used to characterize the TiO₂ and CdS/TiO₂ samples.

Study Question: What is willingness, preference and decision-making about planning for the possibility of needing multiple cycles of IVF/ICSI treatment among patients consulting for a first or repeat stimulated IVF/ICSI cycle?

Summary Answer: The majority of patients seem to value the opportunity to plan for multiple cycles of treatment while acknowledging both possible challenges and benefits of doing so and decisions that might need to be made in advance.

What Is Known Already: Patients have strong intentions to do treatment to achieve pregnancy and approximately 48-54% continue treatment when confronted with a failed cycle, undergoing at least three complete cycles of treatment. However, there is inconsistency between this apparent willingness to do multiple cycles of treatment and the way treatment is currently planned on a cycle-by-cycle basis with patients.
