She gave birth in Lelek, the doctor recommended preserving the umbilical cord blood of our baby, commenting ... this is invaluable material. The contract was concluded with the Institute of Cell Therapy, and received another 10% discount from the Lelek maternity hospital for the collection and storage of material. The container was brought to the hospital in advance, the husband controlled the collection of material during childbirth. In the cryobank, analyzes were done on time under the contract, then they informed us the results and prepared a certificate. We paid in installments, first an advance, and then the remainder. In the near future we plan to sign up for an excursion to the cryobank ... it is interesting to look at the technologies of the future.

Were at the bottom of open doors. It seems that everything was ok until I asked for a certificate for this activity. This institution does not have a certificate that they are a cord blood bank. The certificate which is dated 2011 cannot be unlimited and it seemed to me that it is 100% linden. They do not have a fresh certificate issued by the Ministry of Health of Ukraine stating that this institution is a cord blood bank. And he must be! According to the law # 286 of 03/02/2016. The certification certificate states that it is a laboratory, not a bank. In the certificate itself, the end date of the certificate is written in pen by hand. To my great regret, I was convinced that another regular fraud in Ukraine was to lure money. I read reviews about the Hemofund and about their scandal and decided to contact this bank (Institute), but as it turned out, this structure does not have proper documents and they are not a bank as such, but according to the documents they are a laboratory. Therefore, everything is at your own peril and risk. Although the reviews about this institution were good.

More recently, about stem cells more often could be heard in science fiction films, and now it has become real and affordable. Stem cell preservation is the best gift I have given my baby for birth! Diseases are getting younger, but medicine does not stand still. More and more diseases are treatable using stem cells. Of course I want the need for their use to arise as soon as possible, but such a bio-insurance will never be superfluous, especially since it is absolutely safe for the baby. The agreement was concluded with the Institute of Cell Therapy at Open Day, having received a 10% discount.

For the first time, my husband and I learned about stem cells at the School for Pregnant Women event at the Institute of Cell Therapy. Having studied all the pros and cons of this service, we decided to conclude an agreement and give our first-born child the most expensive gift - biological insurance! Material collection is safe for both mom and baby. The opportunity is unique - only during childbirth!

Institute of Cell Therapy, we have confidence in them. The doctor takes the material and then passes it to the cryobank, there they will do tests. We still retained the placental mesenchymal stem cells, this is a new service. A consultant doctor at the Institute of Cell Therapy said that mesenchymal stem cells can be used for diseases of the musculoskeletal system, nervous and cardiovascular systems, as well as for the restoration of organs and tissues.

I doubted a little whether it was necessary to save blood from the umbilical cord - it is not known whether the baby will need it, and the cost of storage is quite high. And then I met a family that already in this bank of cord blood saves cells. It so happened that they already had to use it, the drug came up to the first child in the family who needed to be treated. If there were no stored cells, the treatment would cost tens of times more. So we also decided to maintain cord blood in this clinic. I went to the open door day, they explain everything very clearly, they all showed that there is no reason not to trust, especially since my friends have kept blood here for many years from which they made the drug. Thanks to the specialists for the good work!

ICO ENTRY

Several times I tried to learn how to use the collected stem cells in practice. Every time they said something slurred. They accurately said that in Ukraine they do not treat oncology, they can be treated abroad, but the center does not know about it. From the pros - the price. In the states, such things cost tens of times more. But if necessary, it is not clear how to transport these cells to the states - it should be a special cryocontainer, how airport security will react to this container and any sanitation in the states is not clear. Contract. The contract did not like much. But now there’s only one thing: the clause according to which the bank can unilaterally terminate the agreement contains, among other things, “war, floods, earthquakes,” the phrase “and so on.” So, in the case of jambs of a cryobank, because of this "and so on" the bank owes you nothing. Under "and so on" you can stuff ALL that is pleasing. After the presentation, I went up to ask on this point to the person who was making the presentation. His answer: "Oh, you know, I'm a doctor. I don’t know anything in these legal aspects. The contract is typical, no one will remake it for you." So much for Ukrainian business. In principle, you can leave a number in the contract, the phrase that the bank will store blood, details for payment, and "and so on."

I want to thank the head doctor of the clinic Sokolov Nikolai Fedorovich for professional advice, an objective assessment of the case of my patient and straightforward answers. Being a doctor myself, I highly appreciated his qualifications and ability to accurately determine the patient’s condition on the basis of CT scans and English-language extracts. Special thanks to the girls from the call center for their correctness and patience.

we also decided to conclude an agreement when my husband visited Kiev was in a medical town and was able to personally assess everything that they offer on the spot. Also, by appointment, I visited the cryobank: I assure you that the level is more than European: this is a serious specialized institution. On the spot, I decided the issue of papers and a container for transportation (we live in Kharkov). We are expecting childbirth and are a little worried - it is very nice to talk with a girl from the call center, I probably already tired her with my questions.
