In the ever-evolving landscape of medical advancements, securing the future health of your family has become more accessible than ever. CryoSave, a leading name in stem cell preservation, offers a comprehensive and streamlined process for parents looking to safeguard their child’s health through the preservation of umbilical cord blood and tissue. Let’s take a closer look at what happens when you decide to join CryoSave.
Beginning the Journey:
- Registration Online: To initiate the process, prospective parents can register online through CryoSave’s user-friendly digital application form available on their website, www.cryosave.co.za. This straightforward step sets the foundation for the journey ahead.
- Delivery of Collection Kit: Once registered, arrangements are swiftly made to deliver the CryoSave collection kit to your doorstep. This kit contains everything necessary for the collection process, ensuring that you, your midwife, or doctor are well-equipped for the upcoming birth.
- Bringing the Kit to the Hospital: An essential reminder for expectant parents is to take the collection kit with them to the hospital when the time comes for the birth. This proactive step ensures a seamless transition to the collection process.
The Collection Process:
- Risk-Free and Painless: One of the key benefits of CryoSave’s process is that the collection is entirely risk-free and painless for both the mother and the baby. This is a crucial aspect that prioritizes the well-being of all involved.
- Immediate Collection Post-Birth: After the birth, the collection is performed promptly by your doctor or midwife. A small section of the umbilical cord (approximately 20cm) and 150ml of blood are collected, securing valuable stem cells for future use.
- Ensuring Completion: Before concluding the collection process, it is vital to ensure that maternal blood samples are collected, all necessary documents are filled out, and everything is packed correctly. This meticulous attention to detail guarantees the integrity of the collected samples.
After the Birth:
- Initiating Contact with CryoSave: With the collection completed, the next step is to contact CryoSave. A seamless communication process is established, marking the beginning of the post-collection phase.
- Specialized Courier Service: CryoSave takes care of logistics by sending a specialized courier to collect the kit. This courier is entrusted with the safe and timely transport of the samples to CryoSave’s state-of-the-art laboratory for processing and storage.
Processing and Storage:
- Confirmation and Certificate: Once safely delivered to the CryoSave laboratory, parents receive a confirmatory email and certificate. This communication serves as tangible evidence that their baby’s stem cells are securely stored in a liquid nitrogen tank within CryoSave’s highly secured facility.
- Long-Term Cryo-Preservation: CryoSave South Africa commits to cryo-preserving your baby’s cord and tissue stem cells for a minimum of 20 years, offering peace of mind and a long-term investment in your family’s health and well-being.
In the journey with CryoSave, each step is thoughtfully designed to prioritize the safety, comfort, and future health of your family.
