The use of an electronic whiteboard that posts optimum times for performing critical procedures significantly increases the proportion of evaluations that occur within these ranges. Such improved standardization led to positive downstream effects on the number of usable embryos per patient. We suggest that electronic whiteboard implementation driven by real-time data collection should be considered in all IVF laboratories.
