Abstract:
Objective:To explore the hope level and influencing factors of infertile patients with first or repeated in vitro fertilization-embryo transfer (IVF-ET).Methods:Female patients receiving IVF-ET treatment during January to June, 2019 in reproductive Medicine Center, Ruijin Hospital, Shanghai Jiaotong University School of medicine, were enrolled in this study. All patients were divided into first and repeated cycles (≥2 cycles), then a questionnaire survey was conducted. The questionnaire included demographic information, Herth hope index (HHI) scale, Locke-Wallace short marital-adjustment test scale and social support rating scale. Multiple linear regression was used to analyze the associated influencing factors of hope level.Results:A total of 251 IVF-ET patients were recruited in the study, including 142 (56.6%) in the first cycle and 109 (43.4%) in the repeated cycle. The HHI score of the repeated cycle was significantly lower than that of the first cycle [(32.0±3.3) vs (36.0±3.1) points] ( P<0.001). Multiple linear regression analysis indicated that repeated IVF-ET was independently negatively correlated with HHI, with a standardized coefficient β of -0.406 ( P<0.001). While living in a city ( P=0.013), high monthly income ( P=0.026), high degree short marital-adjustment test ( P=0.006) and social support rating ( P=0.002) were independently positively correlated with HHI. Conclusions:Repeated IVF-ET treatment patients have a significantly lower HHI score. The residence, monthly income, marital-adjustment, and social support are significantly associated with hope level.
