Collection of placental blood with a view to hemopoietic reconstitution.
Collection of placental blood in a sterile and closed system is a simple, safe and efficient procedure. One hundred and fifty eight units of fetal blood were collected by applying the same requirements of quality and safety as those defined for blood products in blood banks. No adverse effects were seen in mothers or their newborns.
