Umbilical Cord Blood Storage (Stem Cell Banking)
 & Newborn Screening (NBS) Test

 

Dear Parents,

We understand that you have invested in your child’s future health even before it is born by the way of committing to storing the baby’s umbilical cord blood.

It’s a good idea to do it and with ever advancing medical science it could be useful, but you need to understand a few points also:-

 

  1. As of today Stem Cells cannot be used to treat/cure any of the Treatable Inborn Errors of Metabolism
  2. Babies with these disorders would appear Normal and Healthy at Birth
  3. The symptoms of these disorders may appear at any age.
  4. Usually the outcome of the child would be poor once the symptoms have set in; hence the treatment needs to start way before the onset.
  5. If god forbids your child has any one of these 45+ disorders and it hasn’t been detected at birth then the child could suffer from serious consequences like Delayed Milestones, Physical Disability, Mental Retardation & Death.
  6. So even after spending between Rs 60,00000 to Rs 1,00,00000 for Stem Cell Banking nothing can be done to help your child such Metabolic Disorders.

 

So what do you need to do as a parent?

 

Get a FirstStep™ done soon after the baby is born. It costs just Rs 4250+S&H anywhere in India.

 

We are sure that if adequate information is given to you than there is no way you would spend Rs 60,000++ but try saving Rs 4250++

 

By doing this test you have taken the FirstStep™ for your child’s healthy future. We are sure you would never regret taking this decision like millions of proud parents all over the globe.
