Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Preimplantation genetic diagnosis using next generation sequencing. Involves patient's biopsied embryos genetic analysis. Choice of the embryos for transfer was based on the PGD NGS results.
Duration: 12 hours of analysis
Frequency: Once in this investigation
Intervention code [1] 289909 0
Diagnosis / Prognosis
Comparator / control treatment
ICSI with preimplantation genetic diagnosis (PGD) vs standard treatment (ICSI without PGD). In control group selection of embryos for transfer was based on microscopic morphology analysis and rate of divisions analysis.
Control group
Active
