Description
Intrathecal Stem Cell Injection Treatment
The Intrathecal Stem Cell Injection Treatment is done to get stem cells directly to the spinal fluid and then cerebral fluid.
An intrathecal stem cell Injection treatment is similar to a spinal tap, but with a much skinnier needle. We use a 30g syringe which is the same diameter as an insulins syringe. We put 50 million mesenchymal stem cells suspended in 2ml of sodium lactate into the spinal fluid after we take 2ml of spinal fluid out. This treatment will be part of our protocol for MS, Alzheimer’s/Dementia, Stroke and Autism. To do this, we have brought on Dr. Giovanna and Dr. Oscar who are both licensed anesthesiologists.
Intrathecal Stem Cell Application
Dr. GIOVANNA AGUILAR GRIMALDO & Dr. OSCAR JAVIER MEZA ORTIZ
Dr. Giovanna and Dr. Oscar are both licensed anesthesiologists. In Mexico, where Dream Body Clinic is located an intrathecal injection can only be done by an anesthesiologist. This is because of the specialized training needed to know the correct location of an intrathecal injection and technique. The intrathecal injection sounds painful and dangerous, but it is actually a very easy and minimally invasive procedure. For optimal results it is the most studied and most highly recommended application point for brain issues.
Intrathecal Stem Cell Injection Treatment Process
- We start with a full blood analysis the day before treatment
- The clinic room is fully sterilized and then the patients back is sterilized with iodine and microdasyn.
- The doctors and nurses prepare the syringe with 50 million mesenchymal stem cells
- The doctor performs intrathecal application of the stem cells
Side Effects or Risks
The only side effects that have been documented are the following:
- Some patients may experience a slight fever for a up to 48 after treatment.
- Some patients will have a headache a few hours after treatment or the following days. Some patients may experience a headache due to increased pressure in the cerebral spinal fluid. We provide tramacet to help reduce or eliminate these possible side effects.
- The intrathecal injection can cause back pain or muscle spasms.
- Any injection treatment has a very small risk of infection. We do everything in a sterile environment with sterile equipment to take this risk to almost zero.
Our doctors have over 8 years performing intrathecal injections and our lab has over 8 years specializing in Mesenchymal Stem Cell research. See Stem Cell Certification by Clicking Here.
