• Description:
  This report provides state-specific information on ART procedures performed in the United States in 2006. It compares ART birth outcomes with outcomes for all infants born in the United States in 2006. It includes data from the 50 states, the District of Columbia, and Puerto Rico. Assisted Reproductive Technology (ART) includes fertility treatments in which both eggs and sperm are handled in the laboratory (i.e., in vitro fertilization and related procedures).Patients who undergo ART procedures are more likely to deliver multiple-birth infants than women who conceive naturally. Multiple births are associated with increased risk for mothers and infants (e.g., pregnancy complications, premature delivery, low-birthweight infants, and long-term disability among infants). This report presents the most recent national data and state-specific results.
