A growing number of ingenious gift givers have discovered a special kind of present for new babies and their families.
It's a contribution to help them collect and store the newborn stem cells in their baby's umbilical cord blood. Providing a unique opportunity to protect a that child or another family member's future health is banked cord blood. This truly is a valuable gift you can give.
For serious blood and immune disorders, doctors use newborn stem cells in cord blood for treatment. As medical research evolves, so will stem cell therapies, with new treatments expected for heart disease, diabetes, brain damage, cerebral palsy, stroke, and other age-related conditions, offering families more and more uses for banked cord blood.
Currently, scientists believe, stem cells similar to those found in cord blood can develop into replacement cells for damaged organs. Damaged areas of the liver can be repaired or heart tissue damaged after a heart attack can be healed by stem cells. Unlocking that amazing potential could generate new therapies for diseases only treated with traditional medical therapies in the past.
The stem cells of a newborn are derived from cord blood and they're a controversial source of stem cells. They have similar characteristics to embryonic stem cells, come from a live birth, and are currently emerging as a viable research alternative to embryonic cells.
When it comes to newborn stem cells, they can be easily obtained and immediately available if you need them. They are unique because they do not have to match the recipient as closely as bone marrow, offer less chance of being rejected, and can be used by siblings, the child's mother and other relatives, in many circumstances where bone marrow cells cannot.
Each child has one opportunity to collect and store cord blood and that's right after birth. It's a quick, painless, and easy procedure and completely safe for mother and baby.
Families have peace of mind if they bank cord blood because they know the related stem cells are available if needed. So how about giving a loved one a gift that will last a lifetime?
