Protecting Eggs, Embryos, and Sperm
Numerous couples around the world share the dream of one day having children. For same sex couples, and those with fertility issues, modern day science can make these dreams a reality. However, the cost is high and it can take years to make it work.
For couples that have gone through the process of finding an egg donor, surrogate, and/or sperm donor, there are other obstacles to overcome. There’s the paperwork and sometimes multiple trials. This is not a process for the faint hearted.
It really is a miracle that doctors are able to give life to the millions of couples unable to conceive without intervention. However, one common problem can turn this dream into a nightmare.
Protecting Temperature Sensitive Items
Eggs, embryo, and sperm must be kept at a consistent temperature at all times. This is accomplished with the help of special refrigeration units. Unfortunately, these units can be prone to problems. Any issues with refrigeration equipment can put sperm, eggs, and embryos at risk.
Both the motor and the compressor of refrigeration units can experience problems. These problems often go unnoticed until it is too late. Once sensitive items are allowed to defrost, they are no longer viable. This can be true even if they only partially defrost.
Medical storage facilities often do not have the means to properly track temperatures and refrigeration equipment health. This can lead to disaster. Cold storage units must be monitored at all times and issues addressed before they are able to cause a problem.
