Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| The aim of the study is to analyze the effect of the GnRH analogue used on embryo developmental kinetics. The main study parameter is the time needed from completion of the first cleavage division until reaching the 4-cell stage, determined by retrospective analysis of time lapse recordings. | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Secondary study parameters on embryo developmental kinetics will be the time interval between: - Disappearance of the pronuclei and first cleavage of the embryo, as well as reaching the 2-cell, 4-cell and 8-cell stage; - Completion of first cleavage and reaching the 3-cell and 8-cell stage; - The 3-cell and 4-cell stage. We will also analyze embryo morphology on Day 3 and determine the proportion of good quality embryos, as defined by embryos with 8 cells, | — |
