-

The Immunological Pregnancy Test (GIT) is a simple pregnancy test that is routinely performed on patients who undergo an in vitro fertilization (IVF) procedure approximately 12-14 days after the embryo transfer.

Below you have an index with all the points that we will discuss in this article.

The objective of this test is to detect the hormone beta-hCG ( human chorionic gonadotropin ) known as the pregnancy hormone.

Pregnancy test or TIG

We can measure this hormone in both urine and blood, so for the pregnancy test it will simply be necessary to obtain a urine sample, preferably the first of the morning, or perform a blood draw of the patient.

The determination in blood is more objective and allows the exact quantification of the hormone level. However, with the exception of certain specific cases, in FIVValencia we usually perform the urine test because it is easier and more comfortable for the patients.

Know if I'm pregnant

On numerous occasions, the question of who is the most appropriate health professional to give the news of the result of the TIG has been raised.

Fertility treatments are accompanied by a great effort, especially emotional, so when it comes to reporting the outcome of treatment is essential that the person in charge of reporting on treatment results have the ability to empathize with patients and transmit information with tact and delicacy.

Positive in the pregnancy test

The possible reaction to difficult situations as well as the resources of coping and the trajectory of response is something specific to each person so it is important to know the patients and consider their personality at the time of giving them the news. The personal relationship with them based on constant and close dialogue is basic.

These conditions are specific to the field of assisted reproduction nursing. For this reason, the nursing team is the most suitable to give the results of the pregnancy test.
