A brief overview of stem cell usage in medicine
over the years
  • Over the years, stem cells are becoming
    increasingly popular.

4
  • In 2010, there were 57900 hematopoietic stem cell
    transplants done. This shows that there has been
    a 35 increase in the past five years

5
  • In 2014 alone, almost 78000 hematopoietic stem
    cell transplants were performed world wide

6
  • Transplants using stem cells found in the
    umbilical cord accounted for more than 30000
    transplants

7
  • In 2009, the number was only 11000. This shows a
    massive increase in the number of transplants
    performed using stem cells present in the
    umbilical cord.

Ways to handle cord blood
  • There are mainly 3 different ways you can handle
    your babys umbilical cord blood
  • Publicly donate
  • Privately bank
  • Discard as medical waste

  • In a recent study in the US, 77 of 600 parents
    had not heard about stem cell banking

15
  • Only 23 were aware of the process

16
  • Lack of awareness is causing the umbilical cord
    to go as medical waste

  • Most people dont realize that cord blood
    treatment is fast, non-invasive and completely
    pain-free

24
  • There are a number of known causes but there is
    no cure for autism.

25
  • In the US, 1 in 88 children are diagnosed with
    Autism and boys are affected 5 times more than
    girls.
