In vitro fertilization and embryo transfer

In vitro fertilization and embryo transfer

C H Garner. JOGN Nurs. 1983 Mar-Apr.

Abstract

In vitro fertilization is one of the newest approaches to infertility. Opportunities for nurses in IVF involve teaching couples about physiology, providing technical assistance and care, and counseling about the medical and emotional aspects of the program. Many times the nurse serves as the primary support person for couples and as their advocate with other team members.
