Abstract (464 Views)
Aims: The treatment for infertility is a multifaceted process in which both the healthcare team and the clients actively participate. Therefore, having sufficient knowledge of assisted reproductive technologies among infertile individuals is essential for achieving successful treatment. This study aimed to assess the understanding of assisted reproductive technologies among infertile individuals and identify the factors affecting it.
Instrument & Methods: This cross-sectional study was done on individuals who visited the infertility treatment center at Qazvin University of Medical Sciences between June and September 2024. A structured questionnaire designed to assess knowledge of assisted reproductive technologies was completed by the participants. Data were analyzed using SPSS software, with a significance level set at p<0.05.
Findings: Of the 237 participants, 93.2% were female and 6.8% were male. The overall knowledge of assisted reproductive technologies was reported to be 42.9%. Women demonstrated a higher level of knowledge compared to men. There was a direct relationship between educational level and knowledge of general assisted reproductive technology information. Employees had less knowledge of assisted reproductive technologies compared to other occupational groups (p=0.010). No significant relationship was found between age, duration of infertility, and knowledge level.
Conclusion: Individuals’ knowledge of assisted reproductive technologies is below 50% and education level, gender, and occupation are significantly associated with knowledge levels.
