1 INTRODUCTION As the creation of profit-making ventures from another individual's body is prohibited under international law, regulations have developed over decades to limit trade in human-derived products and the resulting harms. Frameworks now exist in national and regional law, produced by regulatory bodies, for the collection, production and distribution of a wide range of human-derived products, including notably blood, tissues, organs and cells.

4 DISCUSSION This study was an online survey of DHM usage on neonatal units in the United Kingdom. The major findings are that DHM is used in the majority of units that responded, which increased from those reported previously (Battersby et al., 2018; Zipitis et al., 2015). Most units anticipated continuing to use DHM at current or increasing volumes, and DHM requirements would increase as rationing reduced, contingent on availability.
