Caution: Patient characteristics vary among programs; therefore, this data should not be used for reliably comparing clinics.

  1. Reflects patient and treatment characteristics of ART cycles performed in 2009 using fresh nondonor eggs or embryos.
  2. When fewer than 20 cycles are reported in an age category, rates are shown as a fraction and confidence intervals are not given.  Calculating percentages from fractions may be misleading and is not encouraged.
  3. A multiple-infant birth is counted as one live birth.
  4. Clinic-specific outcome rates for women older than 44 undergoing ART cycles using fresh or frozen-embryos with nondonor eggs are not included because of small numbers.  Readers are urged to review national outcomes for these age groups.
  5. All ages (including ages >44) are reported together because previous data show that patient age does not materially affect success with donor eggs.
