Chaitanya Stem Therapy Center > Collection and Processing

Bone marrow processing and quality testing Prior to scheduling bone marrow collection you will be asked to fill out the patient consent form. This form grants explicit written permission for bone marrow collection. You must discontinue using any blood diluting medications at least 10 days before your collection date. It is advisable to consult your physician before discontinuing the use of blood diluting drugs. On the fix, our team will be prepared to begin the collection procedure and try their best to make it comfortable for you. When we greet you on collection day, we'll have everything prepared to begin the procedure. The physician will collect approximately 150 - 200 ml of bone marrow from your hip bone. Stem cell collection is performed as an in-patient procedure under local / general anaesthesia in sterile conditions. During the collection, you will barely feel the needle insertion into your hip bone. Post the collection you may experience slight pain for 3-4 days and the area might appear like a blue spot. Normally, there are no other side effects.

Theoretically, there is a small risk of infection. We minimize this risk by working in a sterile environment. Within 48 hours, the stem cell samples are processed and quality tested by a highly specialized laboratory in totally sterile clean room conditions. Since they are in sterile tubes they never come into contact with the air and the sample is thus protected from contamination. Stem cells are introduced in cerebrospinal fluid via lumbar puncture. Since the cerebrospinal fluid circulates, stem cells are transported directly to the damaged tissue in the brain or the spinal cord. Bone marrow processing and quality testing consists of Stem cell isolation - stem cells are separated from the red blood cells and blood plasma. Stem cell counting Stem cell vitality measurement

The entire procedure usually takes about 30 minutes. Immediately after treatment, you will spend about three or four hours laying in bed in our recovery room for observation. As with any minimally invasive intervention, intrathecal stem cell implantation carries a very small risk of infection. We minimize this risk by working in a sterile environment and by prescribing prophylactic antibiotics to you. If there are no complications, you can return home after 2 days. For the treatment patient needs 2- 3 days admission during which his examinations and various investigations are conducted as per the International Council Stem Cell Research Therapy protocol(IC-SCRT). During the stem cell therapy, the stem cells are acquired by extraction of the bone marrow. The extracted material is sent to stem cell based biological Laboratory. During processing the stem cells are separated according to the International Quality Control protocol. These stem cells are processed and Cryo-save for further more 2-3 follows up injection doses. These stem cells are reintroduced in the body to reach the damaged part and work accordingly. Improvement is evident from 8 weeks onwards to 1 year as stated according to the previous experiences and studies. Patient may need 2-3 follow up injections as per the improvement.
