Vietnam sets first Asian record in the field of in vitro fertilization

Labo thụ tinh ống nghiệm của Việt Nam được vinh danh kỷ lục châu Á. — Vietnam's IVF lab honored as Asian record.

Accordingly, Tam Anh General Hospital in Ho Chi Minh City has just been recognized by the Asian Record Organization as the "First hospital in Asia with an ISO 5 standard embryology lab system following the "lab in lab" model, applied in gamete manipulation and embryo culture", contributing significantly to improving the success rate in infertility treatment.

Representative of Asia Book of Records (ABR), Dr. Biswaroop Roy Chowdhury - President of World Record Union said that before announcing the Asian record, Asia Book of Records (ABR) had compared with other record systems to check that the record had been recorded in the Book of Records of India, Vietnam, Indonesia, or other Asian countries. The medical advisory board, consisting of doctors and medical experts in many countries, including Indonesia, Vietnam, India, Bangladesh and some non-Asian countries such as the US, reviewed all the evidence and made a decision on whether the record was eligible for recognition.

At the same time, the embryology lab system of Tam Anh General Hospital also set a Vietnamese record, being the first hospital to build an ISO 5 standard embryology lab system following the "lab in lab" model, applied in gamete manipulation and embryo culture.

To establish a record for Vietnam and Asia, the laboratory system in IVF of Tam Anh General Hospital was compared to confirm its superiority. The ISO 5 standard embryo culture room brings significant benefits in assisted reproductive practices.

First of all, maintaining a standard “cleanroom” environment according to medical standards with extremely low density of dust particles and microorganisms helps to minimize the risk of bacterial, fungal, and viral infections as well as limit the presence of volatile organic compounds that can cause cell toxicity. Thanks to that, the quality of the environment around the embryo is guaranteed, contributing to improving fertilization efficiency, blastocyst development rate, and nesting ability...

Many international studies, including those published in the prestigious journals Fertility and Sterility and Reproductive BioMedicine Online, have shown that the “cleanroom” standard is one of the decisive factors in increasing the success rate of an in vitro fertilization procedure, shortening the time and reducing treatment costs for infertile couples, helping patients give birth to healthy children soon.

In particular, the application of clean rooms in IVF labs is a key factor in increasing the live birth rate. Retrospective data from more than 3,000 treatment cycles at IVF centers with ISO 5 labs showed that the live birth rate increased significantly after improving the quality of the culture medium.

According to statistics from 2021 to 2024, the cumulative pregnancy rate at IVF Tam Anh in Ho Chi Minh City averaged 80.1%, in which the group of patients under 28 years old had a success rate of up to 86.9%. Even in the group of patients who failed many times, the cumulative success rate still reached 71.9%. This is a very encouraging number, creating strong motivation for infertile couples with difficult prognoses (such as: Older wives, many diseases, long-term infertility, multiple embryo transfer failures, women with ovarian failure, men with no sperm...) to still succeed and give birth to healthy children even with only one embryo.

Not only that, Tam Anh IVF System is increasingly attracting foreign patients for treatment. In particular, the treatment cost here is very competitive, only 1/3 compared to ASEAN countries.
