External Quality Assessment & Standards
At Krishna IVF Clinic, Visakhapatnam, maintaining precision and reliability in every laboratory process is of the highest priority. To ensure ongoing excellence, our clinic actively participates in the internationally recognised External Quality Assessment Scheme for Reproductive Medicine (EQASRM).
EQASRM is a specialised external quality control program designed exclusively for IVF units and reproductive laboratories that perform fertility-related diagnostic and embryology testing. The scheme enables laboratories to compare their results with peer institutions around the world and to maintain globally consistent standards of analytical accuracy and performance.

- • Sperm Concentration

Through this program, our embryology and diagnostic laboratories regularly assess their performance against international standards, identify opportunities for enhancement, and implement corrective measures whenever required.

- • Verification of precision and reproducibility in semen analysis, hormone assays, and embryology parameters
