Cord blood banks are institutions designed to store umbilical cord [3] blood (UCB) stem cells [4]. UCB, a source of hematopoietic stem cells [5] (HSCs), has garnered attention from scientific and medical communities since its first successful use in a hematopoietic stem cell transplant (HSCT) in 1988. The umbilical cord [3] is the lifeline by which the growing fetus [6] is nourished by the moth...
BACKGROUND Many women giving birth in Australian hospitals can choose to donate their child's umbilical cord blood to a public cord blood bank or pay to store it privately. We conducted a survey to determine the proportion and characteristics of pregnant women who are aware of umbilical cord blood (UCB) banking and who have considered and decided about this option.

A successful liver transplant program needs cooperation and communication from the surgical, blood banking, pathology, primary care, and anesthesia services. Rapid availability of laboratory data, efficient blood banking services, ability to infuse blood products rapidly, coagulation management capability, and plentiful manpower are essential.
Since the first successful transplantation of umbilical cord blood in 1988, cord blood has become an important source of hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells for the treatment of blood and genetic disorders. Significant progress has been accompanied by challenges for scientists, ethicists, and health policy makers. With the recent recognition of the need for a national system for the collect...
This paper explores the perspectives of women who have agreed that their umbilical cord blood may be collected for a public 'cord blood bank', for use in transplant medicine or research. Drawing on interview data from 27 mothers who agreed to the collection and use of their umbilical cord blood, these choices and the informed consent process are explored. It is shown that the needs of sick chil...
