Eugonia elected to join ESHRE

1-Mar-2019

One of Eugonia's chief gynecologists, G.Lainas, was elected as coordinator of The European Society of Human Reproduction and Endocrinology. His election took place during the annual meeting.

The conference took place in Barcelona in July  2018 with 12,500 registrations from all over the world. He  was elected as Junior Deputy of Special Interest Group of Reproductive Endocrinology of ESHRE in 2015 , and held the post of Senior Deputy until 2017. These are unique posts which are offered to internationally acclaimed scientists and clinicians, who steer the developments of Reproductive Medicine at an international scale.

Dr G.Lainas has always been an active part in ESHRE, as he is also a member of two guidance groups, a) GDG on Ovarian Stimulation in IVF/ICSI and b) ART Clinical Performance Indicators. The first group is working on an international guideline, which is expected to be completed within the year, and will be a point of reference for every Assisted Reproduction Unit and every IVF specialist worldwide. The guideline, which adheres to the principle of evidence based medicine, will assure infertile couples that the optimal method of ovarian stimulation has been followed, based on the most recent information from international studies. The guideline aims to provide both physicians and embryologists with useful evidence-based information regarding the various protocols of ovarian stimulation, including ovarian response, expected live birth rates, safety and personalized treatment.

The second working group "ART Clinical Performance Indicators KPIs" is focused on developing clinical key performance indicators for Assisted Reproduction. In order to develop a standard clinical practice, appropriate KPIs are required in order to monitor the effect of various methods on patient care. The Special Interest Group for Reproductive Endocrinology, with the participation of Dr Lainas, organized a meeting of specialists and experts in the development of KPIs for ART in order to reach a consensus which can be publish and adopted. The results of this meeting now need to be codified and are expected to be useful for the everyday practice of every IVF unit worldwide that respects its patients and wants to improve.

Eugonia is committed to clinical and scientific excellence, and provides personalised IVF treatment using the most-up-to-date technologies and techniques, based on the principles of evidence-based medicine.
