Report Finds Reproductive Medicine Associates of New Jersey's 2012 IVF Success Rates to be 23 Percent Above National Average for Women Under 35

BASKING RIDGE, N.J., Feb. 18, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- Reproductive Medicine Associates of New Jersey (RMANJ) has released in-vitro fertilization (IVF) success rates for the year ending December 2012, the most recent data reported yesterday by The Society of Assisted Reproductive Technology (SART).  The data highlighted that RMANJ continues to generate some of the highest IVF delivery rates in the US.

RMANJ, a world-renowned leader in the field of Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART), attributes their success rates to its cutting-edge research, patient centered approach, and unwavering commitment to helping hopeful parents deliver healthy babies.

"While our current approach to IVF has dramatically increased success rates, we know there is more research to be done," said Dr. Richard T. Scott Jr., a founding partner of RMANJ.  "We are dedicated to pioneering new approaches to increase the likelihood of implantation and increased birth rate while ensuring a healthier delivery."

Through extensive research, RMANJ has found that a process that includes SelectCCS (Comprehensive Chromosome Screening), endometrial synchrony and Single Embryo Transfer (SET) continues to produce the highest success rates for their patients.¹ RMANJ's focus on endometrial synchrony results in freezing more embryos to maximize the window of implantation for each patient.

When compared to the national average, RMANJ continues to deliver higher success rates across all age groups and maintains a lower number of embryos transferred per cycle.

"When looking at the SART report, patients should also look at multiple pregnancy rates in addition to delivery rates for their age group. When we're talking about getting a patient pregnant, we are ideally looking for a singleton pregnancy, the lowest-risk situation for mother and child, "offered Dr. Michael R. Drews, a founding partner of RMANJ. "Our holistic approach to IVF focuses on finding new ways to achieve the highest delivery rates while concentrating on the most viable and healthy solutions for our patients and their babies"  added Dr. Drews.

As required by the Fertility Clinic Success Rate and Certification Act of 1992, reproductive endocrinologists must report in-vitro fertilization (IVF) delivery rates to the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) and The Society of Assisted Reproductive Technology (SART), the primary organization of professionals dedicated to the practice of Assisted Reproductive Technologies in the United States. RMANJ's full Clinic Summary Report can be viewed at http://www.sart.org/find_frm.html.
