Nowadays, due to environmental factors and some congenital factors, many people may suffer from major illnesses, which means they have to face serious damage to their body organs. It has been proposed to use umbilical cord blood to save lives. So, how many times can umbilical cord blood be used?
1. The storage of umbilical cord blood in medicine is very strict. It is stored in a relatively refrigerated environment, and once opened, it cannot be frozen again. Therefore, each umbilical cord blood can only be used once. Some people may mistakenly believe that it is enough to divide it into two bags during storage, but this is completely impossible.
2. Umbilical cord blood contains a large number of cells that can replace various other cells in the body and fully differentiate. It is used in many places to treat genetic diseases, such as anemia symptoms and leukemia patients. Because these diseases have a serious course and a very low chance of cure, many places store umbilical cord blood after the baby is born.
3. In recent years, with the continuous development of medical technology, research on umbilical cord blood has become more extensive, which can effectively rebuild some hematopoietic functions and other immune systems in humans. Therefore, many doctors use this surgical method for treatment, providing strong guarantees for those congenital diseases.
