Mistakes Made in the Use of Medication in the Treatment of IVF
How to avoid mistakes made in the use of drugs during the treatment of a baby tube?
As with many diseases in the process of tube baby treatment, the patient is always at the center of the treatment. Therefore, the correct use of the drugs used in the treatment can have consequences that can even affect the success of the treatment.
Although the patient is not “hasta” in real terms, as in other diseases, in tube baby treatments, he is forced to use many kinds of drugs in the treatment process. However, the patient enters a process that has no previous experience and lasts for about 20 days. So what are the mistakes patients make about drug use during this process. And how can the tube avoid mistakes that may arise from the use of drugs during infant treatment?
What is the point that most irritates patients about the use of drugs in the treatment process?
In fact, a significant part of the fear of the tube baby found in some of our patients is actually caused by the use of drugs. Because during this period, concerns and fears such as I will miscalculate the drug doses or apply to the wrong area evoke the idea that I will make mistakes on the patient. This feeling also causes a real pressure on them. Because in the period of ovulation induction (growing the egg), which takes 10-14 days, we want a woman who has not received an injector even once in her life to give herself an injection. Of course, that makes them uneasy.
What is the way to relieve the patient's concern about mistakes that may arise from the use of medication?
In fact, the most important thing to do in this case is to give the patient a very good education in this regard. This training can address the patient's concerns as well as play an important role in the rates of pregnancy after treatment.
Do most patients make such mistakes when it comes to using medications?
From studies on this subject, we see that about 20% of patients who are in the treatment of tube babies make the mistake of using ’si drugs. But the important point is that 29% of these patients do not share these mistakes with their physicians.
What should be done in order to avoid mistakes caused by the patient not using the right medication during the treatment process. Or what should patients pay attention to?
In fact, if the patient is very well informed during a meticulous tube baby treatment process, such problems are not encountered. But another important point is that the patient should be honest with his doctor and nurse at all times and in all matters. Besides this, it is possible to sort what to do.
The duration, time and doses of the hormone drugs used for egg enlargement need to be carefully explained to the patient and shown practically.
The points to be considered about the use of the drug and the information on how to use it should be given to the patient in writing.
Changes made during treatment are warned by the relevant patient doctor and nurse. If there is an incorrect use, the effect of the error may need to be rearranged or canceled.
The most common erroneous step is the HCG (egg cracking) injection, which is performed at the end of the egg enlargement period. An error in the timing of this needle causes the eggs to crack early or the mature eggs to be unable to be retrieved. For this reason, the baby tube centers must confirm the time of the injection.
The drugs to be used after egg collection and transfer are completely different. Medications taken by mouth and used vaginally are added to the treatment. The patient should speak to the doctor personally and treatment support should be preferred where patient compliance is best.
The success of the treatment is achieved more easily and smoothly with an approach made by communication between the doctors of the baby center of the tube, nurses and the patient, accessibility within 24 hours of the day, attention to detail and attention to detail.
