dc.description.abstractObjective: to present a definition of recurrent implantation failure that accounts for the effects of female age and anticipated blastocyst euploidy rates on cumulative implantation rates. Design: mathematical modeling. Setting: not applicable. Patient(s): not applicable. Intervention(s): mathematical modeling of cumulative implantation probability on the basis of published blastocyst euploidy rates across categories of female age. Main Outcome Measure(s): the number of blastocysts required to achieve 95% cumulative implantation probability under the assumption of the absence of any other factor affecting implantation. Result(s): when the euploidy status of the transferred embryo is unknown (i.e., not subjected to preimplantation genetic testing for aneuploidies), our simulation shows that no age category reaches 95% cumulative probability of implantation of at least one embryo until after transfer of seven blastocysts. The number of blastocysts required to reach the same threshold is higher for older patients. For example, women older than 38 years require transfer of more than 10 untested blastocysts for the upper range of predictive probability to meet the threshold of 95%. On the other hand, if the implantation rate for a euploid blastocyst is assumed to be 55%, then 4 blastocysts are enough to reach a cumulative probability rate greater than 95%, regardless of age. Conclusion(s): the term ""recurrent implantation failure""should be a functional term guiding further management. We suggest that recurrent implantation failure should not be called until implantation failure becomes reasonably likely to be caused by factors other than embryo aneuploidy, the leading cause of implantation failure. We propose a new definition that factors in anticipated blastocyst euploidy rates across categories of female age, euploid blastocyst implantation rate, and a specified threshold of cumulative probability of implantation. / Objetivo: Presentar una definicion de fallo recurrente de implantacion que tenga en cuenta los efectos de la edad de la mujer y las tasasanticipadas de euploidia de blastocisto sobre las tasas acumulativas de implantacion. Dise no: modelo matematico. Lugar: no aplicable. Pacientes(s): no aplicable. Intervencion(es): modelo matematico de probabilidad acumulativa de implantacion basado en las tasas de euploidia de blastocistopublicadas segun categorias de edad de la mujer. Principal(es) medida(s) de resultado(s): el numero de blastocistos requerido para obtener una probabilidad acumulativa de im-plantacion del 95% asumiendo la ausencia de cualquier otro factor que afecte la implantacion. Resultado(s): cuando es estado de euploidia del embrion transferido es desconocido (i.e., no sujeto a diagnostico genetico preimplan-tacional para aneuploidias), nuestra simulacion demuestra que ninguna categoria de edad llega al 95% de probabilidad acumulativa deimplantacion de al menos un embrion hasta despues de transferir siete blastocistos. El numero de blastocistos requeridos para alcanzarel mismo nivel es mayor en pacientes mayores. Por ejemplo, las mujeres mayores de 38 anos requieren transferencia de mas de 10 blas-tocistos sin evaluar para que el rango superior de probabilidad predictiva alcance el nivel de 95%. Por otra parte, si la tasa de im-plantacion de un blastocisto euploide se estima en 55%, entonces 4 blastocistos son suficientes para alcanzar una tasa deprobabilidad acumulativa mayor del 95%, sin importar la edad. Conclusion(es): el termino ‘‘fallo recurrente de implantacion’’debería ser un termino funcional para guiar el manejo posterior. Suger-imos que no deberia llamarse fallo recurrente de implantacion hasta que sea razonablemente probable que el fallo de implantacion seacausado por otros factores ademas de la aneuploidía embrionaria, la principal causa de fallo de implantacion. Proponemos una nuevadefinicion que tenga en cuenta las tasas anticipadas de euploidia de blastocistos segun categorias de edad de la mujer, tasa de im-plantacion de blastocisto euploide y un nivel especifico de probabilidad acumulativa de implantacion.
