Donor's cycle
To create a cycle, click on the '+' button at the bottom left corner of the main patient's window.
  |
Create either Only aspiration or any IVF/ICSI cycles and check Donation (Ooc/Emb).
  |
After creating the cycle, switch to Aspiration and select the amount of oocytes collected.
In order to cryopreserve oocytes, change to Cryo/Donation. Switch to the Graphical representation and select the desired material (1). Right-click on it and choose Cryopreservation. The cryopreservation window will open. You must enter all information necessary and check For donation (2).
  |
This is how Graphical representation will look after cryopreservation.

Another way of cryopreserving material is through the Table representation view. Double-click the red cell for Cryo (1). The cryopreservation window will open and you must enter all information necessary and check For donation (2).
Note: using this view, detailed properties will not be recorded for individual oocytes/embryos (3).
  |
This is how the table will look if you cryopreserve all oocytes.

Straw reservation
After the material is cryopreserved, we need to reserve straws so we can continue with the donation process.
On the recipient’s main screen, open Matcher (Donor info -> New reservation). On the Cryo donation tab (1) search the donor you need and choose the straws you want to have reserved (2). Click on the matcher button (3).
  |
Now we are able to see the reserved straws in the recipient’s cryo area. From the patient’s main screen, double-click the blue area.

If the Reserved material area is not visible, click on the bar at the bottom of the window (1).
