Managing the PGD Cycle

PGD is a multidisciplinary process involving not only clinical and paramedical professionals members but administrative team members who have a crucial role to play in ensuring a smooth process and that patients are satisfied with the way that their cycle has been handled. Each member of the team has their specific role but may not see through the entire process, each playing their part when needed. Nevertheless they each should be aware of the sequence and stages involved in the PGD cycle in order to be able to provide correct helpful information to the patient when requested. Efficiency of the process can be facilitated by the use of checklists to ensure that crucial details are not omitted at each stage.
