DVIF&G & ASRM

In response the recent news about the California Octoplets, the American Society for Reproductive Medicine has released the following statement. DVIF&G abides by ASRM guidelines.

“Over the decade, the ASRM & our affiliate the Society for Reproductive Technology (SART) have worked diligently to reduce the number of high order multiple births resulting from IVF treatments. We have produced guidelines restricting the number of embryos transferred during IVF. Published research confirms that these guidelines have led to fewer embryos being transferred and a marked reduction in the number of high order multiple births.

At this point, we do not know the circumstances surrounding the conception of these children and what if any medical treatment were involved. If this resulted from an IVF treatment, we can say that transferring eight embryos in an IVF cycle is well beyond our guidelines. Working with SART we have a process for looking into these kind of matters & taking appropriate action.”
