Umbilical cord clamping after birth [PDF]

BMJ, 2007
Early clamping and cutting of the umbilical cord is widely practised as part of the management of labour, but recent studies suggest that it may be harmful to the baby. So should we now delay the clamping? Early clamping of the cord was one of the first routine medical interventions in labour.

Physiological-based cord clamping in very preterm infants: the Aeration, Breathing, Clamping 3 (ABC3) trial—study protocol for a multicentre randomised controlled trial

Trials, 2022
Background International guidelines recommend delayed umbilical cord clamping (DCC) up to 1 min in preterm infants, unless the condition of the infant requires immediate resuscitation.

Umbilical cord milking-benefits and risks

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2023
The most common methods for providing additional placental blood to a newborn are delayed cord clamping (DCC) and umbilical cord milking (UCM). However, DCC carries the potential risk of hypothermia due to extended exposure to the cold environment in the

Italian Recommendations for Placental Transfusion Strategies

Frontiers in Pediatrics, 2018
At delivery, if the cord is not clamped, blood continues to pass from the placenta to the newborn during the first minutes of life, allowing the transfer of 25–35 ml/kg of placental blood to the newborn, depending on gestational age, the timing of cord ...

THE EFFECTIVENESS OF DELAYED CORD CLAMPING ON INFANT OUTCOMES

Placentum, 2023
Introduction: Lately, delayed cord clamping is often used as a method of cutting the umbilical cord which is expected to provide good outcomes for the baby, but this method still needs to be studied in depth through review articles to find out its effect.

Less Residual placental blood volume left when cord pulsation ceases than when early cord clamping at 60 seconds

Clinical and Experimental Obstetrics & Gynecology, 2020
Objectives: Our goal was to test the volume of residual placental blood volume (RPBV) left with delayed cord clamping occurring when pulsation of the umbilical artery ceases as compared to early cord clamping at 60 seconds along with an assessment of its

Severe Hemorrhage from the Umbilical Cord at Birth: A Preventable Cause of Neonatal Shock

Case Reports in Pediatrics, 2013
Posthemorrhagic anemia is a rare but important cause of anemia in neonates, second only to hemolytic anemia of newborn. Most cases of posthemorrhagic anemia are reported from fetomaternal hemorrhage or umbilical cord accidents in utero.

Efficacy of Intact Cord Resuscitation Compared to Immediate Cord Clamping on Cardiorespiratory Adaptation at Birth in Infants with Isolated Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CHIC)

Children, 2021
Resuscitation at birth of infants with Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia (CDH) remains highly challenging because of severe failure of cardiorespiratory adaptation at birth. Usually, the umbilical cord is clamped immediately after birth.
