ABSTRACT:
An umbilical cord blood collection device includes a base defining a collection surface for receiving and supporting a segment of an umbilical cord, in communication with a placenta, from which blood is to be collected. The base, in at least a region including the collection surface, is resistant to penetration by a blood collection needle. A clamp is mounted at a first end region of the collection surface for clamping engagement across the umbilical cord supported upon the collection surface. A securement strap is disposed in an opposite, second end region of the collection surface for securing engagement with the umbilical cord. A malleable arm has a first end mounted to the base and a second, free end supporting a blood collection needle. A method for collection of umbilical cord blood is also described.
