Although ART offers important options for the treatment of infertility, the decision to use ART involves many factors in addition to success rates. Going through repeated ART cycles requires substantial commitments of time, effort, money, and emotional energy. Couples and individuals considering ART should carefully examine all related financial, psychologic, ethical, and medical issues before beginning treatment. They should also contact ART clinics to discuss their specific medical situation and potential for success using ART. The next published report will feature 1996 data and provide a listing of clinics that did not submit data. Eventually, the annual report will include information from all U.S. fertility clinics, not just those that are SART members.
尽管辅助生殖技术为治疗不孕症提供了重要选择，但决定使用辅助生殖技术除了成功率外还涉及许多因素。经历反复的辅助生殖技术周期需要投入大量的时间、精力、金钱和情感能量。考虑使用辅助生殖技术的夫妇和个人在开始治疗前应仔细审视所有相关的财务、心理、伦理和医学问题。他们还应联系辅助生殖技术诊所，讨论他们的具体病情以及使用辅助生殖技术成功受孕的可能性。下一份发布的报告将呈现1996年的数据，并列出未提交数据的诊所。最终，年度报告将包含所有美国生育诊所的信息，而不仅仅是辅助生殖技术协会成员诊所的信息。
