the Effect of Hyaluronic Acid Intrauterine Wash on Endometrial Receptivity and Pregnancy Outcome

Hyaluronic acid intrauterine wash is done for infertile females undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection on the day of oocyte retrieval. endometrial receptivity parameters, including the subendometrial vasculature indices were measured before and after the intervention for purpose of studying the effect of hyaluronic acid on improvement of the endometrial receptivity and subsequently the pregnancy outcome

Treatment and study plan

Hyaluronic Acid (HA)

Drug

hyaluronic acid PRP preparation used to wash the endometrium on the day of oocytes retrieval

platlet rich plasma (PRP)

Drug

PRP preparation used to wash the uterine cavity on the day of oocytes retrieval

Primary outcomes

  1. measuring the value of resistance index (RI) of the sub-endometrial blood vessels

    Time frame: for each participant twice measure will be done for (RI). The first measure will be performed on the day of oocyte retrieval and the second measure on the day of embryo transfer which is done 3-5 days after oocyte retrieval.

    We will measure the value of the resistance index (RI) using the transvaginal ultrasound Doppler study. For each patient, RI will be measured twice: the first measure will be done before the intervention on the day of oocyte retrieval, and the second measure will be performed after the intervention on the day of embryo transfer.

    we will calculate RI according to the following equation Resistance index (RI)= [Peak Systolic Velocity (PSV) cm/sec - End Diastolic Velocity (EDV) cm/sec ] / Peak Systolic Velocity (PSV) cm/sec Then a statistical comparison will be made to evaluate the difference between the two readings to study the effect of the intervention on the measured parameter for each group.

  2. measuring the value of sub- endometrial vessels pulsatile index (PI)

    Time frame: for each participant twice measure will be done for PI. The first measure is on the day of oocyte retrieval and the second measure on the day of embryo transfer which is done 3-5 days after oocyte retrieval.

    We will measure the value of the pulsatile index (PI) using the transvaginal ultrasound Doppler study. PI will be measured twice for each patient: once before the oocyte retrieval intervention and once after the embryo transfer intervention.

    then PI will be calculated according to the following equation Pulsatility Index (PI) = [Peak Systolic Velocity (PSV) cm/sec - end Diastolic Velocity (EDV) cm/sec ] / Mean Velocity (MV) cm/sec Then a statistical comparison will be made to evaluate the difference between the two readings to study the effect of the intervention on the measured parameter for each group.

  3. measuring the value of peak systolic to end diastolic ratio (S/D) of the sub-endometrial blood vessels

    Time frame: for each participant twice measure will be done for S/D. The first measure is on the day of oocyte retrieval and the second measure on the day of embryo transfer which is done 3-5 days after oocyte retrieval.

    We will measure the value of the peak systolic to end diastolic ratio (S/D) using the transvaginal ultrasound Doppler study. For each patient, S/D will be measured twice: the first measure will be done before the intervention on the day of oocyte retrieval, and the second measure will be performed after the intervention on the day of embryo transfer.

    S/D will be calculated according to the following equation S/D= Peak Systolic Velocity (PSV) cm/sec /End Diastolic Velocity (ED) cm/sec

    Then a statistical comparison will be made to evaluate the difference between the two readings to study the effect of the intervention on the measured parameter for each group.

Secondary outcomes

  1. measuring serum level of beta human chorionic gonadotropin

    Time frame: 2 weeks from the day of oocyte retrieval

    We will assess the effect of hyaluronic acid intrauterine wash on improving the pregnancy outcome in infertile patients undergoing intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI). Two weeks after the day of oocyte retrieval, we will measure the serum level of beta human chorionic gonadotropin (B HCG) in mIU/mL to test for successful pregnancy. The pregnancy rates will be compared between the study groups using statistical analysis to see how effective hyaluronic acid intrauterine wash is on pregnancy outcomes compared to the PRP and control groups.
