Ovum Collection

Ovum aspiration subjects the oocyte-cumulus complex (OCC) to a series of stressful events that have the potential to significantly compromise its viability. The following Cook Medical products have been designed to maintain optimal viability of the OCC, reduce patient trauma and simplify the procedure. Minimizing temperature and pH fluctuation is critical at this stage to ensure that subsequent processes, such as fertilization and cleavage, proceed normally.
