PURPOSE: To evaluate embryologic outcomes among paired IVF cycles in which a microfluidics chip was utilized compared to density gradient centrifugation for sperm processing.
METHODS: This was a retrospective cohort study of 88 paired IVF cycles from patients aged 18-44 years at a university-affiliated IVF center. Fresh cycles from patients undergoing ICSI with sperm processed by a microfluidics chamber (microfluidics cycles) were compared to the same patients' previous ICSI cycles in which sperm was processed via density gradient centrifugation (control cycles). The primary outcome was the high-quality blastulation rate.
RESULTS: High-quality blastulation rate per oocyte retrieved was significantly higher in the microfluidics group compared to the control group (21.1% versus 14.5%, p < 0.01) as was the blastulation rate per 2PN (42.7% versus 30.8%, p < 0.01). Fertilization rates were significantly higher in the microfluidics group. The euploidy rate per oocyte retrieved was significantly higher in the microfluidics group compared with the control group (8.5% versus 4.3%, p = 0.04), while the euploidy rate per embryo biopsied was comparable (32.6% versus 21.8%, p = 0.09). In patients with male factor infertility, the high-quality blastulation rate was similar between the control and microfluidics cycles. There was a significantly higher blastulation rate among microfluidics cycles in patients without a diagnosis of male factor infertility (p < 0.01).
CONCLUSION: In this study, several embryologic outcomes, including fertilization rate, high-quality blastulation rate, and euploidy rate, were significantly higher in the microfluidics group compared to the control group. Microfluidics sperm processing may be a way to improve embryologic outcomes.
