Table 3.

Time between intracytoplasmic sperm injection (ICSI) and second polar body extrusion, fertilization, and blastocyst development rates of embryos from good- and poor-quality rescued non-artificially activated (ROA) oocytes, respectively

Extrusion No extrusion
Number of good quality non-ROA oocytes 2 52
Mean time until extrusion 4:45 ± 21
1PN rate, n (%) 0 (0.0%) 1 (1.9%)
2PN rate, n (%) 2 (100.0%) 1 (1.9%)
3PN or higher rate, n (%) 0 (0.0%) 2 (3.9%)
0PN rate, n (%) 0 (0.0%) 48 (92.3%)
Blastocyst development rate, n (% per 2PN) 1 (50.0%) 1 (100.0%)
Good quality blastocyst development rate, n (% per 2PN) 0 (0.0%) 1 (0.0%)
Number of poor-quality non-ROA oocytes 2 19
Mean time until extrusion 6:30 ± 42
1PN rate, n (%) 1 (50.0%) 2 (10.5%)
2PN rate, n (%) 0 (0.0%) 2 (10.5%)
3PN or higher rate, n (%) 1 (50.0%) 7 (36.8%)
0PN rate, n (%) 0 (0.0%) 8 (42.1%)
Blastocyst development rate, n (% per 2PN) - 0 (0.0%)
Good quality blastocyst development rate, n (% per 2PN) - 0 (0.0%)
