Patients Treated By Our Partner's Hospitals: over 1240 |
Our partner has provided stem cells for the treatment of CP since 2005. Because CP is not a progressive condition, it is possible for improvements to last for a long period of time. Some patients experience immediate benefits soon after the start of treatment while others steadily improve even after returning home. As with any form of stem cell therapy, there is the possibility of minimal/no improvement, and we encourage patients and caregivers to maintain realistic expectations for the treatment. Upon receiving medical information, our doctors can give additional guidance about the treatment’s appropriateness.
General Treatment Protocol:
Below is the general treatment protocol for cerebral palsy. Please keep in mind that this is only an example and the injection and cell types may change slightly depending on the patient’s condition. CP patients will receive one of the following protocols (decided by the doctors upon medical review).
- UCBSC packets injected by IV and LP
- UCBSC packets injected by IV, LP, and one CT-Guided Stereotactic Intracranial Injection (for older CP patients)
- CP children with shunts will not receive LP unless requested and confirmed by our medical department
