TRANSFER Event

click here for video tutorials on this feature! the transfer event is a pulse only event added to recipient animals for embryo transfers pulse allows you to manage your embryo inventory and enter transfer events in web or the mobile app expand the sections below to learn more add a transfer event you can add a transfer event from the mobile app or web in two different ways transfer an embryo from inventory from web, select an embryo from the inventory tab to open its side panel then use the transfer embryo shortcut to add a transfer event important if the embryo does not meet the requirements for transfer, the option is not available from the side panel see embryo requirements for transfer docid 1leiqjsjabimqmlmga k to learn more add a transfer event to the recipient animal from the recipient animal's cowcard or the mobile app, add a transfer event for the recipient animal add the required embryo details to save the event tip pulse makes it easy to find or add your embryo in the side panel from web or in the mobile app! search for an embryo, choose an embryo from inventory, or add a new embryo when adding transfer events from web, you can also filter or sort your embryos transfer event details expand the topics below to learn more about transfer event details donor the female who provided the embryo or (sometimes referred to as the donor dam) when you search for a donor female, the app only locates matching females within your herd the search retains your history so that you can easily select the same donor female(s) again once you choose the donor female, the donor field displays its if you do not find this embryo's donor female in your search, you can enter it manually (see instructions below) enter a donor female's id manually if the donor female you need to choose is not shown in the search results, you can enter its id manually type the exact id in the search bar, and you have the option to add it anyway the app will display the exact id you enter for the donor female tip in the mobile app, the selected identifier determines which keyboard layout is presented when entering the donor if you need to enter letters and numbers, you may need to change the selected identifier to change the keyboard breeding code the breeding code for the selected recipient female tap this field to select from a list of available breeding codes how do i edit the breeding codes in this list? if you have the required permissions, you can view or edit the breeding codes docid\ vlm0f3i4dqdhwhbpuowes in pulse or the breeding code table in dairycomp for dcu dairies these breeding codes are used mainly for extra information regarding the breeding, such as a standing heat, prostaglandin usage, embryo transfer, etc , with a specific veterinary application embryo details the bull whose semen was used to fertilize the donor's egg to produce the embryo if this column shows pool , it means that an oocyte was fertilized by from a pool containing the semen of multiple sires donor tthe female who provided the embryo or oocyte (sometimes referred to as the donor dam) embryo breed the embryo breed select from the standard list of breeds fertilization date date the donor egg was fertilized using the sire semen recovery type the recovery type used flush is used for embryos ivf for in vitro fertilization ( ) other for neither of the above tank the liquid nitrogen storage tank containing the cane with the embryo's straw incubator the warming unit containing the embryo's straw or mating cane the container holding the embryo's straw mating a description of the embryo mating details, such as sire, donor, and fertilization date may contain multiple embryos straw number number of the straw holding the embryo canes contain multiple straws and each straw holds a single embryo stage the stage at which the embryo was harvested 1 unfertilized 2 simple celled 3 early morula 4 morula 5 early blastocyst 6 blastocyst 7 expanded blastocyst 8 hatched blastocyst 9 expanded and hatched blastocyst grade the quality of the embryo 1 good 2 fair 3 poor 4 dead (or degenerating) lab id identifier for the lab from which the embryo was purchased lab embryo id identifier for the embryo from the lab this value differs from the pulse embryo id embryo owner name or company that owns the embryo frozen date date the embryo was frozen freeze method the method used to freeze the embryo direct transfer (dt) is the process of using high levels of cryoprotectant to quickly cool an embryo to freezing a common cryoprotectant used for this process is ethylene glycol slow is the process of using low levels of cryoprotectant and a programmable freezing machine to slowly lower the temperature of the embryo to freezing recipient the animal that received the embryo transfer including the recipient and transfer details automatically adds a transfer event to the recipient animal see import transferred embryos docid\ kb0fuyjecbxp6a4myf5vi for more information transferred the embryo technician who completed the transfer transferred date date the embryo was transferred to the recipient breeding code the code associated with the breeding activity check your dairy's breeding codes docid\ vlm0f3i4dqdhwhbpuowes for more details on each code see tips for embryo transfers in pulse docid 1leiqjsjabimqmlmga k for more help with the transfer event after your transfer events are added, use the transferred docid\ kr1cg8jwjcxb6rvl8zqto and results docid\ ussp9h0m6fn2qlou8dewd tabs from web to review progress and track outcomes click here to learn about embryo and transfer event sanity checks! pulse completes a variety of checks to keep your embryo transfer data as accurate as possible the following sanity checks are done throughout the process if an animal was bred within 10 days, transfer events cannot be added and pulse flags the animal in an error message be sure to check that the recipient animal is correct when you see the bred error message if an animal is pregnant, the transfer event cannot be deleted if you made an error, first delete the reproduction event (bred, prev, , open, abort, fresh, sold, or died), and then delete the transfer event pulse warns you if you attempt to add a second transfer event to the same animal within 7 days transferred embryos default to an unsuccessful status if results are not added within 280 days process changes when you add events from web or the mobile app, your updates are sent to pulse and then on to dairycomp for dcu dairies (wifi or data connection required) when the platform receives the completed transfer event from the mobile app, it makes the following updates records an transfer event and sets the to the date the event was completed or diagnosed if an embryo from inventory was used for the transfer, moves the embryo from embryo inventory docid\ fbeckbxg3aawwhpxvadtu to the transferred embryos docid\ kr1cg8jwjcxb6rvl8zqto tab adds the event details for any new embryos to the transferred embryos docid\ kr1cg8jwjcxb6rvl8zqto tab embryo transfer results after the embryo transfer is completed and processed from either web or mobile, the embryo moves from embryo inventory docid\ fbeckbxg3aawwhpxvadtu to the transferred embryos docid\ kr1cg8jwjcxb6rvl8zqto tab then, when the recipient animal is checked and confirmed preg, open, abort, fresh, sold, or died, the embryo moves to the embryo results docid\ ussp9h0m6fn2qlou8dewd tab embryo transfers in dairycomp (for dc unlimited dairies) when dairycomp receives a completed transfer event from pulse, it processes the following changes records a bred event and updates the status for all completed animals in the transfer event click here to learn more about the bred date and embryo age! if the embryo is defined in the transfer event, then the bred event is back dated based on the age entered for example, if the embryo is 7 days old and is 8/21/19, then pulse transfer event is recorded as 8/21/19, and dairycomp will receive a bred event dated 8/14/19 if the embryo age is not defined in the transfer event, then the date of the transfer is used for the bred date assigns the embryo an id, which is auto created from the data entered in pulse transfer event this id stays with the embryo for the entire duration of the pregnancy records the embryo's sire id as the clears the recipient's (donor female) value once the embryo is transferred to the recipient female if dairycomp receives an embryo transfer event for a pregnant animal, it updates the animal's record to show a status of when dairycomp later receives a fresh event for the recipient female, then the embryo transfer is marked as "successful "
