Bone marrow transplants or umbilical cord
blood transplants can save lives. Johns Hopkins
Medicine says bone marrow transplants
can be used to replace diseased, nonfunctioning
bone marrow with healthy bone marrow to treat
conditions like leukemia, aplastic anemia and sickle
cell anemia. Similar to receiving blood transfusions,
those who require bone marrow need to
be well-matched to improve their prognosis. Th is
means fi nding a donor with a human leukocyte
antigen (HLA) tissue type that closely matches a
patient’s. Roughly 30 percent of patients will have a
relative who matches and is able to donate, leaving
the other 70 percent reliant on compatible donors,
says HRSA Blood Stem Cell. More blood marrow
donors are needed, particularly among minority
groups. A lack of minority marrow donors and others
of diverse ethnicities means that people in these
demographics can have trouble being matched.
Gift of Life warns that a shortage of diverse donors
is costing lives, and urges more people to join the
blood marrow donor pool.
