Background For neonates and preterm infants, in whom a transfusion dose is low, the use of
red blood cells (RBC) from cord blood appears to be feasible. Standardisation of …

Abstract 275 Newborns are currently transfused with RBCs from adults, which mainly
contain adult hemoglobin (HbA). HbA has a lower affinity for oxygen than fetal hemoglobin …

Background and Objectives The use of umbilical cord blood (UCB) for transfusion purposes
has gained interest the past years. UCB transfusion could serve premature infants, who …

Red blood cells (RBCs) from cord blood contain fetal hemoglobin that is predominant in
newborns and, therefore, may be more appropriate for neonatal transfusions than currently …

Abstract Background and Objectives Umbilical cord blood (UCB) has been used as a source
of red blood cells (RBCs) for neonatal/paediatric transfusion purposes. This study adopted …

BACKGROUND: The objective was to investigate the use of autologous red blood cells
(RBCs) derived from umbilical cord blood (UCB), as an alternative for allogeneic …

Background: Preterm infants often receive blood transfusions early in life. In this setting,
umbilical cord blood (UCB) might be safer than adult blood (A) with respect to infectious and …

BACKGROUND: This prospective study was conducted to gain experience as to whether it is
technically possible to produce autologous RBCs in additive solution from cord blood (CB) …

Although the use of umbilical cord blood (UCB) for transfusion purposes has been proposed
decades ago, the employ is still limited. In this article we review studies evaluating UCB …
