Objectives

Need Statement:

IVF is a multi-factorial, operator-dependent, complex set of technologies, which is highly affected by patient etiology, team member experience and technical details. In such a system, randomized controlled trials and associated evidence-based reviews may permit accurate answers only if the variables studied are focused and unaffected by skill, experience and politics. There is a need to re-evaluate what is considered evidence in reproductive technologies, because of the extra complications rendered by user experiences, skill and the team multifaceted nature of the procedures.

Objectives:

  1. Provide an overview of IVF technologies and their immediate impact or lack thereof
  2. Critically review the status of evidence-based medicine (EBM) in IVF
  3. Discuss adjustments or changes in the EBM approach in IVF

Indochine is a timeless classic that combines stylish ambience, tropical décor, and exotic French-Vietnamese cuisine. You will never see a menu like it - it is one of those restaurants where food is treated artfully - prepared for your delight.

Chef Huy Chi Le is famed for such goodies as fried spring rolls with shrimp, bay scallops and crab, steamed ravioli stuffed with chicken and shiitake mushrooms, crispy whole red snapper with pimento sauce, and spicy sliced chicken breast with lemongrass and ginger. Spring rolls still arrive hot and crisp, with all their innards (mushrooms, cellophane noodles, chicken, carrots) individually tastable, and chef Huy Chi Le’s “Amok Cambodgien” is a textbook rendition: sole fish wrapped up in a banana leaf with a rich coconut-milk curry. (On the less-Asian side, Indochine also has a well-charred filet mignon.) Desserts straddle the East-West fence with equal aplomb, whether you pick roasted banana and sticky rice or a perfect French lemon tart.

Indochine is the perfect place to go for style, elegance, and class. It should be an awesome night, well worth the CME Credit.

Please join us at the Indochine's Restaurant for fun and festivities!
