영문 초록

Umbilical cord blood is blood that is separated from the umbilical cord and placenta connected to a mother's body when the new born is detached from the mother‘s body at childbirth. Umbilical cord blood contains hematopoietic progenitor cells and stem cells. In the past, umbilical cord blood was physiologically inevitably separated from a human body and discarded with the umbilical cord and placenta and it was not a matter of concern. However, as biomedical technologies have been developed, it has become possible to freeze and keep umbilical cord blood and then defrost it to use it for patients' treatment. In Korea, since Catholic Hematopoietic Stem Cell Bank was instituted in 1996, umbilical cord blood banks have been established and operated mainly by university-affiliated hospitals including Samsung Medical Center in 1997, and Severance Hospital in 1998, and these days many organizations are also operating umbilical cord blood banks as a private corporation. As such banks were not supported by systems, the Ministry of Health and Welfare set umbilical cord blood bank practice standards in August of 2005. The standards aimed at ensuring an adequate level of quality and safety of human umbilical cord blood and contributing to the improvement of national health through standards for the management of human umbilical cord blood. Nonetheless, the standards were not legally enforceable, and thus it was required to secure a proper level of safety of human umbilical cord blood and to introduce laws regarding the management of umbilical cord blood including the collection, examination, safekeeping and supply of umbilical cord blood. The Umbilical Cord Blood Management and Research Act was established on March 17, 2010 and the law will become effective from July 1, 2011. On the below, the enactment process and main details of the Umbilical Cord Blood Management and Research Act will be addressed and the problems underlying in the law examined.
