[Professional Practice Evaluation: How to improve quality management in procreation centers?].
OBJECTIVE
The Professional Practice Evaluation (PPE) is at the heart of quality management in procreation centers. Hereby, we report 3 years of EPP in Cytogenetics and Reproduction laboratory in Amiens University Hospital.


METHODS
This PPE is based upon prospective analysis of in vitro fertilization techniques regarding two major parameters: clinically in improving embryo transfer and biologically by determining fecundation levels. Clinical pregnancies in "Top Quality" trial is chosen as a major indicator of our results.


RESULTS
Per transfer, there is an increase of 8% for clinical pregnancies and 31% in "Top quality" trials.


CONCLUSIONS
The improvement in our results allowed us to propose, in favourable conditions, single embryo transfer.
