Need For Cord Blood Bank Storage

For those that don’t know cord blood,Basically it’s when a woman has a baby there is obviously an
umbilical cord and there are benefits to storing that cord blood from the
umbilical cord for future use. I believe there are about 50 to 100 different
diseases that it can help cure, or play a part in curing if it is ever needed or
called upon.
  
The umbilical cord blood will be put  in a bank and I guess they preserve it somehow in case you need it
sometime in the future.It has been a medical waste before I mean discharged it after delivery ,which has been use as medical therapy in treating many disease seem incurable many years ago.Cold blood storage is a way of preserving cold blood for baby for future use in case the baby has health problem.Reseacher  has discovered many diseases which  can be treated through cord blood stem cell, it has played an important role in the treatment of blood and immune system related genetic diseases, cancers, and blood disorders.

Cord blood banking is now common since many people are realizing the benefits and advantages of storing it.It is very advisable to have concern about the baby’s future.Locate the cord blood bank in your area since there are many cord blood bank companies such as new York cord blood bank,floridal cord blood bank or cord blood banks in usa.

     There are two ways to store cord blood.Store with private Banks or with Public Banks.

Private Banks: Private banking is costly to insurers compare to public banking, private parties, averaging $2500. The ability to use the cord blood may also depend on the long-term commercial viability of the enterprise.

Public Banks: A primary concern with public banking is how to ensure the safety of the cord blood. Because of privacy concerns, it is agreed by most ethical review boards that blood donated to a public bank cannot be permanently linked to the donor. Although cord blood which is donated goes through a series of tests for potentially harmful genetic disorders and viruses, some genetic disorders such as congenital anemia or immune deficiencies might not become apparent in the donor for months or years, by which time all identifying information has long been removed. Because the recipient of the blood could also develop these disorders, this is an important concern.
