China test tube baby technology has matured! What's the difference between test tube baby and normal baby? According to the news released by the Third Hospital of Peking University on April 15, 2019, a baby boy was born in the operating room of the hospital on the morning of April 15, 2019. The baby's mother is the first Chinese mainland test tube baby Zheng Mengzhu, he also became a test tube baby delivered "test tube baby two generation of babies".
Liu Ping, former executive deputy director and chief physician of the reproductive medicine center of the third Beijing Medical College, said that IVF was primarily used to solve the problems of female fallopian tube obstruction. Over the past 30 years, China's assisted reproductive technology has developed rapidly, especially in the diagnosis, screening and intervention of genetic diseases.
In 2018, the reproductive medicine center of the Third Hospital of Beijing Medical University had nearly 600000 outpatient visits and more than 21000 transplant cycles, making it one of the largest centers for the treatment of reproductive endocrine and infertility patients in China. On September 19, 2014, the world's first test tube baby screened for single gene genetic diseases by malbac genome amplification and high-throughput sequencing was born in the Third Hospital of Beijing Medical University, marking that China's preimplantation genetic diagnosis technology has been at the world's leading level.
At present, China's artificial assisted reproduction can reach about 400000 egg retrieval cycles every year, and about 1-2 of every 100 newborns are born with the help of assisted reproductive technology. "Qiao Jie, President of the third Beijing Medical College and academician of the Chinese Academy of engineering, said," the development of assisted reproduction and derivative technology hopes to help more families. For example, there are more than 7000 kinds of single gene genetic diseases. Now many diseases can be clearly screened before embryo implantation, so that children can be free from diseases. '
In 1978, Louis brown, the world's first test tube baby, was born in Britain. In 1987, the research on the protection, preservation and development of human early embryos was included in China's national "Seventh Five Year Plan" project.
It is reported that as of December 31, 2016, 451 medical institutions have been approved to carry out human assisted reproductive technology in China, and 23 medical institutions have been approved to set up human sperm bank.
