Overview
The Prospective Cohort Study for Newborns from patients treated with ART was set up to investigate the short- and long-term health consequences in Reproductive Medical Center, First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, China.
Detailed description
Since the last twenty years, thousands of babies were born from infertile couples treated in our center. However, the short, and especially the long term prognosis of these children were barely known.
Since last decade, Clinical Reproductive Medicine Management System/Electronic Medical Record Cohort Database (CCRM/EMRCD) has been used in Reproductive Medical Center, First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, and Henan Province Key Laboratory for Reproduction and Genetics. Information of patients (POI, PCOS, Endometriosis, azoospermia, ect) were recorded comprehensively. In addition, information of each newborn from our center has also been kept in CCRM/EMRCD. The current project plans to recruit these newborn babies in our center. Biological samples, questionnaires and short/long term health data will be collected. The study is aimed to provide evidence for Newborns from patients treated with ART prognosis.
