| Description | Currently, 2-10% of all babies are born through assisted reproductive techniques (This number is expected to increase in the future(1). Treatment methods infertility treatments vary from country to country, and there are different legal countries on this issue and a wide spectrum of opinions. For this reason there have been efforts in the past to develop an overview that would show the consensus and differences in practices and attitudes towards infertility treatment. A three-year follow-up project on assisted reproductive procedures was initiated by H. Jones, Jr. and J. Cohen in 1998. It continues to evolve under the auspices of the International Federation of Fertility Disorders Societies (IFFS), entitled Global Trends in Reproductive Policy and Practice. This more accurately reflects the scope and focus of the project and makes it available online. IFFS is a WHO partner with a mandate to publish Surveillance. This project was followed by seven more questionnaire surveys, which Czech Republic and our sites participated. In 2019, IFFS published the latest survey, Surveillance 2019, which depicts current policy and practice in assisted reproductive therapy. The basis for this review was an online questionnaire completed by 191 respondents representing 97 of the 132 countries believed to offer AR services(2,3). Our communication is structured according to the topics addressed in Surveillance 2019. Although the 97 countries participated in the survey, not all countries responded to all questions. This fact may bias the conclusions drawn from the survey. |
