Costs of achieving live birth from assisted reproductive technology: a comparison of sequential single and double embryo transfer approaches

摘要

Objective: To assess treatment and pregnancy/infant-associated medical costs and birth outcomes for assisted reproductive technology (ART) cycles in a subset of patients using elective double embryo (ET) and to project the difference in costs and outcomes had the cycles instead been sequential single ETs (fresh followed by frozen if the fresh ET did not result in live birth).
