Validation of Donor Oocytes Semi-automated Vitrification

Oocyte vitrification is an effective method of freezing which has been authorized in France since 2011. The arrival of this technique has led to real improvements in the survival rate of oocytes after warming compared to that observed after slow freezing, a method previously applied. Oocytes reheated after vitrification show excellent results in terms of vitality and recovery of cellular functionality. Indeed, the fertilization rates observed after using warmed and fertilized oocytes in Assisted Reproduction Technology (ART) by intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) are similar to those obtained with fresh oocytes. However, the manual vitrification techniques used until now involve a learning curve and a potential variability of the completion time depending on the operator and the number of oocytes to be vitrified. Oocyte vitrification is a key step to optimize the chances of pregnancy in ART after using these oocytes. However, manual vitrification requires a learning curve, is technician-dependent and requires significant technical time. A semi-automatic vitrification device (GAVI®, Merck), which recently appeared on the market, has demonstrated its effectiveness in terms of speed of production and reproducibility of vitrification of embryos obtained in ART. To our knowledge, no study has analyzed the effectiveness of semi-automatic vitrification (GAVI®, Merck) on survival and oocyte quality after warming. It would therefore be interesting to evaluate the effectiveness of this automaton on oocyte vitrification in the context of oocyte donation and to determine the impact of semi-automatic vitrification on oocytes compared to manual vitrification. The main objective of this study is to demonstrate the non-inferiority of vitrification semi-automated device (Gavi) of oocytes with regard to the oocyte survival rate, compared to the manual technique used in ART. The investigator will compare the effectiveness of semi-automated vitrification device with the manual
