Silver Spring Health:  Cord Blood Banking Awareness Month

The term “cord blood” is used for blood that is drawn from the umbilical cord and the placenta after a baby is born. Up until recently this afterbirth was discarded as medical waste. Cord blood contains stem cells which may be frozen for later use in medical therapies, such as stem cell transplantation or regenerative medicine.

 

The blood in a baby’s umbilical cord has the power to save lives. By choosing to bank this cord blood, parents could help their child, a family member or even a stranger.  Many states in the US have passed laws requiring expectant parents to receive information about cord blood banking.  This is intended to address the educational requirements of these laws and to answer many questions that parents-to-be may have.

 

For more information on Cord Blood Banking Awareness Month, visit SilverSpringCenter’s Health’s page.
