Program Description: Despite decades of use, cord blood remains underutilized in clinical practice, in part due to persistent gaps in knowledge among healthcare professionals. Many providers lack familiarity with the fundamentals of cord blood collection, processing, terminology, and real-world use cases—limiting their ability to effectively consider or discuss this resource in patient care.
This eCast is designed as a foundational educational primer to address these gaps. Attendees will gain a clear understanding of cord blood basics, including key terminology, collection processes, and the current landscape of clinical and emerging uses, with a focus on improving literacy and confidence among healthcare professionals. In addition, the program will highlight common misconceptions, barriers to utilization, and opportunities for engagement within the cord blood ecosystem, including clinical, operational, and career pathways. This program serves as an introductory foundation for attendees who wish to build toward more advanced discussions of cord blood applications, including transplantation, transfusion, and emerging cellular therapies, which will be explored in subsequent programming.
