Umbilical Cord Blood is rich source of life-saving stem cells,

which helps repair damaged or diseased cells.

Dear Parents,

Don't throw it out!

Donate your child’s umbilical cord blood stem cells to Incord Foundation, a public cord blood bank to potentially become someone’s life-saving match.

This is harmless to both mother and the baby.

Cord blood is the blood in your baby’s umbilical cord and placenta. Cord blood contains potentially lifesaving cells called stem cells. Stem cells can develop into mature blood cells, including red blood cells, white blood cells, and platelets. These stem cells are currently used to treat more than 80 critical medical conditions.

Cord blood banking entails collecting the blood left in your new-born’s umbilical cord and placenta following birth and storing it for future medical use, which would otherwise be discarded. The process of taking cord blood cells poses no harm to either the mother or the child. The practice of banking cord blood involves preserving cord blood stem cells for future medical use.

There are two types of cord blood banking: public and private,
here are the key differences between them

Public Cord Blood Banking

Traditionally, non-profit organisations that preserve your donated cord blood for free are known as public cord blood banks. There’s a great chance that your cord blood will be used as it could be given to any child or adult in need.

Private Cord Blood Banking

Private cord blood banks charge registration fees and yearly storage costs for your cord blood preservation, but it’s saved specifically for the own family use, so you’ll have ready access to it. This might reduce the need to look through the nation’s donor registry to find an unrelated donor. Private banks charge around INR 25,000 to 1,50,000 for collecting, testing, and registering, along with an annual storing fee. These prices can differ greatly.

NOTE – The umbilical cord blood that isn’t stored or donated gets thrown away.

Limitations of Private Cord Blood Banking

While some families see security in banking their own members’ cord blood for an emergency and choose storing it to private banks. On the other hand, a private cord blood registry might seem like a backup plan, but there aren’t any accurate statistics on the likelihood of children needing their own stored cells one day. Additionally, the stem cells would have the same condition as your baby, if they have a genetic disorder (such as muscular dystrophy or spina bifida), which frequently precludes using their cord blood reserves.

Another drawback of privately storing cord blood is the possible lack of sufficient cells for a transplant. Each umbilical cord is often only used to collect 50 to 200 millilitres of blood. A meagre amount of matching blood cells can treat a child but not an adult. 

Furthermore, not all mothers are able to donate their cord blood. For instance, if you have a history of cancer, have undergone chemotherapy, or have been treated for a blood condition like HIV or hepatitis, you are normally ineligible. Additionally, there may not be enough blood to collect when donating cord blood with a premature baby or multiples. You must be tested for numerous infections (such as hepatitis and HIV) whether you use a public or private bank.  You won’t be able to store your cord blood if tests reveal that you have an infection or disease.
