Outcomes of oocyte retrievals completed by reproductive endocrinology and infertility fellows versus faculty: a 7-year retrospective review.
Purpose: To examine outcomes of oocyte retrievals completed by Reproductive Endocrinology and Infertility (REI) fellows versus faculty physicians.
Methods: This retrospective cohort study examined patients who underwent oocyte retrievals at Mayo Clinic from July 15, 2009, to December 15, 2016. The primary outcome was the oocyte retrieval rate (ORR) calculated per retrieval as the number of oocytes retrieved per follicles aspirated. The Wilcoxon signed-rank test was used to compare follicle and oocyte counts and ORR between fellows and faculty during the same bilateral retrieval.
Results: The study cohort included the first bilateral retrieval from 845 unique patients completed by 11 fellows and seven faculty. The median ORR was not statistically different for fellows and faculty (0.79 versus 0.80, p = 0.46). To assess for a learning curve, the outcomes of seven fellows who completed at least 80 retrievals in their first year were examined as four chronologically ordered sets of 20. When these sets were compared to the faculty physician mean ORR, no significant differences were found (p-values of 0.69, 0.69, 0.81, and 0.81, respectively).
Conclusion: There were no significant differences in oocyte retrieval rates between fellows versus faculty over a 7-year period, with no significant learning curve observed. These findings suggest that fellows possess the requisite skills for successful oocyte retrieval upon entering REI fellowship following their OB/GYN residency. However, this does not diminish the critical role of comprehensive fellowship training and close supervision, especially in initial and complex cases.
期刊介绍:
The Journal of Assisted Reproduction and Genetics publishes cellular, molecular, genetic, and epigenetic discoveries advancing our understanding of the biology and underlying mechanisms from gametogenesis to offspring health. Special emphasis is placed on the practice and evolution of assisted reproduction technologies (ARTs) with reference to the diagnosis and management of diseases affecting fertility. Our goal is to educate our readership in the translation of basic and clinical discoveries made from human or relevant animal models to the safe and efficacious practice of human ARTs. The scientific rigor and ethical standards embraced by the JARG editorial team ensures a broad international base of expertise guiding the marriage of contemporary clinical research paradigms with basic science discovery. JARG publishes original papers, minireviews, case reports, and opinion pieces often combined into special topic issues that will educate clinicians and scientists with interests in the mechanisms of human development that bear on the treatment of infertility and emerging innovations in human ARTs. The guiding principles of male and female reproductive health impacting pre- and post-conceptional viability and developmental potential are emphasized within the purview of human reproductive health in current and future generations of our species.
The journal is published in cooperation with the American Society for Reproductive Medicine, an organization of more than 8,000 physicians, researchers, nurses, technicians and other professionals dedicated to advancing knowledge and expertise in reproductive biology.
