Stem Cell Treatment Options
The clinic offers two primary methods of stem cell administration for spinal cord injury. Both are part of the clinic's therapy package. Patients receive a detailed evaluation to determine the best approach.
- Intrathecal UC-MSC: This method uses 100 million stem cells. They are delivered via a lumbar puncture directly into the spinal canal. This allows for targeted action at the injury site.
- IV UC-MSC: This approach administers 1-2 million cells per kilogram of body weight intravenously. It provides systemic treatment through the bloodstream.
Each patient's progress is tracked using the ASIA Motor Score. This helps monitor improvements in muscle function. The clinic's chief physician has published research on spinal cord injury outcomes.
