Enmotion (embryo’s natural motion): a paired randomized controlled trial demonstrating pregnancy rates are equivalent between static and dynamic culture systems

Abstract

A major consideration in assisted reproduction is providing a laboratory environment that is as similar to in vivo conditions as possible. Laboratories worldwide typically use static culture systems; however, a dynamic system may more closely mimic in vivo conditions. Reported benefits to dynamic culture include improved blastulation and pregnancy rates (1,2) however these studies included a small number of patients and cited their unpaired design as a limitation to their findings. This study seeks to determine if dynamic embryo culture impacts the reproductive potential of human embryos resulting from IVF.
