Effect of Delayed Cord Clamping on Haematological Status in Low Birth Weight Infants

Low Birth Weight Clinical Trial

Official title:
The Effect of Delayed Cord Clamping on Haematological Status in Low Birth Weight Infants: a Randomised Controlled Trial in South Africa.

Clinical Trial Summary

Delayed cord clamping (DCC, clamping after cessation of pulsations in the cord around 2-3 min after delivery) is effective in increasing (low birth weight) infant haemoglobin and iron status until six months after birth, without increasing the risk of polycythaemia or other adverse events. We hypothesize that this intervention will also benefit low birth weight infants in South Africa.
