Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Presentation of the number of mature eggs captured (MII), evaluated by the embryologist on the day of collection of the eggs

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
Expected outcome 1: Presentation of the number of cases of ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome requiring hospitalization, as assessed by the number of hospitalized patients;Expected outcome 2: Presentation of the total number of ovules collected. Evaluated by the embryologist;Expected outcome 3: Presentation of the number of embryos formed. Evaluated by the embryologist;Expected outcome 4: Presentation of the number of embryos of excellent morphological quality two days after fertilization. Evaluated by the embryologist;Expected outcome 5: Presentation of the total number of injections required for treatment. Evaluated by the number of injections counted by the protocol used in each patient;Expected outcome 6: Verification of the participants' satisfaction with the treatment through an interview satisfaction scale;Expected outcome 7: Verification of the cumulative proportion of women who had a positive pregnancy test (clinical pregnancy, ongoing pregnancy, greater than 20 weeks of gestational age, and live birth), with all embryo transfer in progress from uptake subsequent to Ovarian Stimulation;Expected outcome 8: Checking the average number of hospital visits for treatment;Expected outcome 9: Verification of serum estradiol and progesterone concentrations on the day of ovulation triggering
