Cycle Overview

Revision as of 17:00, 11 March 2013

The cycle Overview window is your "cockpit". In this mask you can find all important items and reach sub-sections with only one click.

Enter the complete medication in the cycle overview. With this information, MedITEX IVF will calculate the first and last stimulation day for the DIR, the stimulation protocol, trigger shot and luteal phase support and more.

Top section

The top part of the Cycle overview displays important information about this cycle, such as:

type of treatment,
number of embryos planned,
etc.

The left section displays information contained in the Cycle details and if you click on this section, Cycle details will open.

The right section contains information that is retrieved from the cycle in course, for example, it displays

the date of the last menstrual period,
the date of the triggering and the medication used,
etc.

One important information about this section is the use of brackets []. Information displayed inside brackets represent what procedure took place. For example, from the image above, the treatment that was planned when creating this cycle was IVF,ICSI and, right next to it, the brackets information shows that what was planned actually happened. Another example is the Pl. sperm collection that initially, was Antegrade ejaculation but in fact, Electrostimulation was used.

Bottom section

The bottom section of the Overview tab presents the calendar and the action taken on each day. Entries in the calendar are devided in 5 groups:

<a href="/index.php?title=Cycle_Overview#Events">Events</a>: shows important events such as the first day of the last menstrual period, follicle aspiration, transfer, or clinical pregnancy. MedITEX IVF will generate this information automatically according to user entries in the corresponding cycle areas.
<a href="/index.php?title=Cycle_Overview#Medication">Medication</a>: a dynamic area where you can create an individual row for every drug used during the treatment. You can add or delete drugs from this list.
<a href="/index.php?title=Cycle_Overview#Hormones">Hormones</a>: reserved fields for the values of the five most important hormones: FSH, LH, E2, PRG and HCG.
<a href="/index.php?title=Cycle_Overview#Ultrasound">Ultrasound</a>: this row stores images of ultrasound examinations.
<a href="/index.php?title=Cycle_Overview#Ultrasound">Follicle US</a>: in this area you can document folliculometry and other ultra sound data, including pictures of ovaries. The pictures and follicle measurements produced by special ultrasound devices can be automatically imported to MedITEX IVF via the DICOM interface, if the DICOM module has been purchased.
