2 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
Autologous human umbilical cord blood (hUCB) stored at Cord Blood Registry will be given to children who have suffered from a Perinatal Arterial Ischemic Stroke. The aim is to determine if hUCB infusion is safe, if late functional outcome is improved, if hUCB treatment improves physiologic response in the child's SSEP \& EEG, and the effect of hUCB infusion in altering anatomic findings on MRI.
The specific aims of this study are: 1. To determine if Human Umbilical Cord Blood (hUCB) infusion is safe in children with perinatal arterial ischemic stroke (AIS). 2. To determine if late functional outcome, physiologic response, and anatomic findings are changed following hUCB infusion in children with perinatal AIS.
