RESUMO
The aim of the study was to determine the level of awareness and acceptance of in vitro fertilization pre-embryo transfer (IVF-ET) patients for freeze-all embryo transfer, improve relevant technical specifications, and optimize treatment results based on medical experience.Questionnaires were completed by women who received in vitro fertilization embryo transfer. A total of 377 valid samples were included into this study. Through focus group discussions and tablet assisted intercept interviews, we analyzed the basic situation, the awareness for frozen-all embryo transfer, and the need for frozen-all embryo transfer information for infertile patients.In this study, 60% of patients received IVF-ET for the first time, whereas the remaining patients received IVF-ET more than once. We investigated the current awareness and acceptance of IVF-ET patients for freeze-all embryo transfer quantificationally. Patients were grouped based on quantitative measurements, and the mainstream group of patients (72.7%) was precisely the patients who were worried and concerned of frozen-all embryo transfers. Although few of them could "rationally accept the comparative advantage of the technology," this group was vulnerable to doctors' guidance and education. Eventually, this group of patients accepted the frozen-all embryo transfer.Since there are no certain criteria for the kind of embryo transfer patients and reproductive centers should take, the choice should be taken individually according to the social economic situation and acceptance of patients for the frozen embryo transfer, as well as the technology of the reproductive center.
