Popis: | Although Edwards and Steptoe achieved the first IVF pregnancy and birth in 1978, the majority of pioneering developments in IVF during the eighties came from Australia. They included the world's first donor egg pregnancy, the first frozen embryo pregnancy and the first IVF multiple pregnancies. Australia also produced the first national guidelines for IVF practices, the first statute legislation protecting donor gamete pregnancies, and Victoria proclaimed the first statute legislation regarding control of IVF procedures. The reporting of the outcome of all IVF pregnancies began in 1980 as another world initiative. |
