Objective: This study sought to determine if, under deadly pandemic conditions involving the novel SARS-CoV-2 corona virus, biopsied blastocysts could be safely cryopreserved, stored and utilized for subsequent warming cycles.

Why This Research Helps Patients:
Ovation has effectively mitigated avoiding performing zona opening procedures by employing our standard practice of aseptic, closed vitrification. In combination with standard preventative measures (PPE, hand hygiene, distance awareness) and routine deep cleaning practices, we sustained a contamination-free environment and healthy patients, capable of sustaining high levels of pregnancy success.
