In vitro fertilization-embryo transfer is a main assisted reproductive technique that can improve the success rate of conception. At present, the ultrasound-guided oocyte retrieval is often employed in clinics, but this process will cause pain and fear in outpatients. This study explored the safety and satisfaction of patients who received egg retrieval under vaginal topical tetracaine anesthesia combined with intravenous propofol anesthesia.
