Robotic IVF Treatment
Robotic IVF (In Vitro Fertilization) treatment refers to the use of robotic systems and automated technologies to assist various steps of fertility treatment. Unlike robotic surgeries, robotic IVF mainly supports laboratory-based and minimally invasive procedures, improving precision, consistency, and success rates
Robotic systems are commonly used in:
Gamete (egg and sperm) handling
Embryo manipulation
Micromanipulation procedures
Selected minimally invasive fertility surgeries
The goal of robotic IVF treatment is to reduce human error, enhance accuracy, and improve reproductive outcomes.
2. Male Infertility Conditions
Low sperm count (oligospermia)
Poor sperm motility
Abnormal sperm morphology
Obstructive azoospermia
1. Female Infertility Conditions
Blocked or damaged fallopian tubes
Endometriosis
Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS)
Ovarian dysfunction
Age-related infertility
Infertility Problems Treated Using Robotic IVF Technology
Robotic IVF techniques are used to address several causes of infertility, including
3. Unexplained Infertility
When standard tests show normal results but pregnancy does not occur
2. Robotic Gamete Handling
Automated selection and positioning of eggs and sperm
Reduces mechanical stress and handling errors
1. Robotic ICSI (Intracytoplasmic Sperm Injection)
Robotic arms inject a single sperm directly into the egg
Provides higher precision and consistency than manual techniques
Robotic Procedures Used in IVF Treatment
Robotic systems assist in several IVF-related procedures:
3. Robotic Embryo Manipulation
Accurate embryo biopsy for genetic testing
Improved embryo preservation during handling
4. Robotic-Assisted Fertility Surgery (Selected Cases)
Tubal surgery
Endometriosis treatment
Ovarian cyst removal
(Performed using minimally invasive robotic surgical systems)
Advantages of Robotic IVF Treatment
Higher precision in micromanipulation procedures
Reduced human error
Improved embryo handling consistency
Lower mechanical stress on eggs and embryos
Potentially higher fertilization and implantation rates
Enhanced laboratory efficiency
Limitations of Robotic IVF Treatment
High cost of robotic systems
Limited availability in fertility centers
Requires specialized training and expertise
Not all IVF steps require robotic assistance
