Intervention / Treatment |
---|---|
NO_INTERVENTION: Control Group
Embryo transfer will be performed as per clinic's routine protocol, where cervical mucus is gently removed with a cotton swab.
No manipulation of the cervical canal is executed.
|
|
EXPERIMENTAL: Flushing Group
A catheter will be used to perform a flushing of the cervical canal with culture media. The Flushing Catheter has a flared proximal end that is designed to affix to a standard Luer slip syringe and a pre-curved distal closed end, with a biseled opening on the side, 2mm from the tip, in which liquid flushes towards the outside of the cervical canal. Device: Cook Flushing Catheter J-IUIC-352200 (3.5fr 20cm flushing catheter with positioner closed end) (CEE approval). |
A catheter will be used to performed a flushing of the cervical canal with culture media.
