F-2011-00339 – Multiple pregnancy outcomes
23 November 2011
Summary of request
The Authority was asked for information about the number of reductions carried out during multiple pregnancies in the most recent year for which data is available and the preceding five years.
HFEA response
The information requested is set out in the document attached and there are several points to note regarding this.
The data attached covers outcomes reported by HFEA licensed centres regarding licensable fertility treatment, ie IVF, ICSI and donor insemination. We have provided the total number of babies born in each year following HFEA licensable fertility treatment to give context to the number of reductions. The information in our database may be subject to change as licensed centres notify us of information that updates or corrects information they have previously supplied. Outcomes up to 31 December 2009 have been subject to a verification process, and the centres that supplied the data have been asked to confirm their accuracy, for which they remain responsible.
