After initial years of improvement, the multiple pregnancy rate after in vitro fertilization (IVF) in Europe now remains stable at 23% with single embryo transfer (SET) constituting 19% of all IVF cycles. Although elective SET prevents multiple pregnancies after IVF, couples and professionals apparently often decide to transfer more embryos. Previous qualitative research has identified factors that impede the use of elective SET. The aim of this study was to quantify those barriers among IVF professionals and to identify predictors of professionals' willingness to perform elective SET.
