In vitro fertilization (IVF) is a broad term used to describe the process of obtaining an egg and uniting it with sperm in a laboratory setting, and subsequently placing the fertilized egg into the uterus in hopes of achieving a live birth. In terms of anesthesiology, IVF primarily means oocyte retrieval. Historically the oocytes were retrieved laparoscopically. With the introduction of the vaginal ultrasound, the method of retrieval changed to a less invasive and costly procedure. Transvaginal ultrasound-guided oocyte aspiration changed the requirements of anesthesia. In this chapter, the anesthesia for oocyte retrieval and related IVF procedures are described.
