In this study, we aimed to determine the effect of microfluidic techniques on sperm selection in ICSI treatment in patients with recurrent implantation failure.</p><p><strong>Methods</strong>: We retrospectively collected data of the patients between 2017 and 2021 from a single center. We analyzed 90 unexplained RIF patients, at whom, 45 patients underwent microfluid chip technique, and 45 patients with conventional sperm selection.</p><p><strong>Results</strong>: Pregnancy rates among the microfluidic chip technique and conventional swim up sperm selection cycles were 36% versus 34%, (p=0,4), clinical pregnancy rates (CPR) &nbsp;were 33% versus 31% (p=0,3) and live birth rates (LBR) were 26% versus 25% (p =0,4).</p><p><strong>Conclusion</strong>: Our study showed that the microfluidic technique does not change CPR, and LBR during IVF treatment for couples with recurrent implantation failure.</p> ER -
