Pregnant at last: how we improve your chances of success

When human health meets cutting-edge science, new opportunities arise on the path to the desired child. That is why it is essential for us at the Kinderwunsch Institut to always remain at the cutting edge of research and technology - this is the only way we can guarantee you the best possible care. In addition to medical expertise, our high-end technology ensures optimum laboratory conditions and maximum precision in all processes.

Developed like in a film

We are one of the few IVF centres in Austria that work with so-called time-lapse cultures - an ultra-modern procedure for seamless monitoring and development control of the embryos - without any intervention in their protected environment. Microscopic images are taken every minute - like a time-lapse film of the beginning of life. The miniaturised incubator ‘Geri’ and the Embryoscope+ are used for this. Both systems minimise disruptive influences at a particularly sensitive stage of development and create optimal growth conditions for the small embryos. The result: a success rate of up to 89% - and therefore real hope for unintentionally childless couples.

Cryopreservation for success

The cryopreservation of egg cells, sperm cells and embryos is a particularly gentle procedure. Using ‘The Cryotop® Method’, egg cells or embryos are cooled to -196° C and frozen by hand. Highly concentrated vitrification media and an extremely fast cooling rate of up to 23,000° C per minute transform the cells and embryos into a glass-like state. This prevents the formation of ice crystals and enables embryos to survive.

Recognising the best time

As optimising chances is a top priority for us, we also use molecular methods to identify the causes of failed pregnancy attempts and determine the optimal conditions. With the help of the ERA, EMMA and ALICE tests, the ideal implantation window can be precisely determined - this enables a personalised embryo transfer that is superior to the conventional procedure. 71% of women who choose this method give birth within a year.
