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.
