The European Fertility Society has awarded Institut Marquès for its excellence in patient care during fertility treatment

The European Fertility Society (EFS) has recognised Institut Marquès with the “Award for Outstanding Patient Experience during Fertility Treatment”. This is one of the Fertility Care Awards 2021 that the EFS grants annually to recognise those clinics, organisations, products and services that pay special attention to the well-being of their patients in their day-to-day lives and that stand out in the key areas of Assisted Reproduction.

In his speech during the awards ceremony, Dr Àlex Garcia-Faura, Scientific Director of Institut Marquès, defined the “daily effort to take care of the well-being of our patients as a work of ants that involves all the people who are part of the centre”.

He also pointed out the importance of “providing special attention to men, thanks to our experience in the treatment of the male factor, with the redesign of the sperm collection rooms (EPS), or the incorporation a few years ago of an application that allows all families to see online the evolution of their embryos in the incubator, the Embryomobile“.

The study “Signs of self-repair of embryos in the IVF laboratory”, awarded by the SEGO

The study Signs of self-repair of embryos in the IVF laboratory, recently presented by Dr Borja Marquès as a communication in the 36th Congress of the Spanish Society of Gynaecology and Obstetrics (SEGO), has won the prize in its category. This work proposes changing the criteria for determining whether embryos are suitable for transfer to the womb in In Vitro Fertilisation treatments.

Embryo cells work as a team to repair themselves

DR Borja Marqués SEGO 2021

The study’s findings suggest that embryos possess a previously unknown self-correcting mechanism. According to this work, embryos that have undergone reverse cleavage (disappearance of some of their cells) or multinucleation (presence of two or more nuclei in some of their cells) can give rise to a normal pregnancy and the birth of a healthy baby.

Thanks to the incubators with time-lapse cameras (Embryoscope), in the laboratories of Institut Marquès it has been possible to capture images of embryos with reverse cleavage reabsorbing their own cells and of multinucleated embryos expelling the abnormal cells on the 4th or 5th day of life. To achieve this, the development of more than 20,000 embryos was analysed, from fertilisation until they reached the blastocyst stage.
