RIF is a disorder with an imprecise definition lacking robust scientific basis, presenting significant challenges in diagnosis and treatment. The concept of 'Theoretical Cumulative Implantation Rate' is proposed to determine RIF diagnosis based on objective data. An updated and standardized definition is needed for patient counseling and research planning.
Recurrent implantation failure (RIF) is an imprecisely defined disorder lacking a robust scientific basis. The incomplete understanding of RIF provides significant diagnostic and therapeutic challenges, and a better understanding of the underlying issues is necessary to improve outcomes. We propose a novel concept termed 'Theoretical Cumulative Implantation Rate', the calculation of which is based on objective data, to define whether a patient should be diagnosed with RIF. An updated definition to assist with patient counselling and planning research studies, which is more precise and standardised, is well overdue.
