View clinical trials related to Delayed Cord Clamping.
Filter by:Delayed cord clamping is a routine technique used in the delivery room. The baby remains attached to the umbilical cord and placenta for 30-60 seconds after birth to allow for maximal transfer of oxygen and blood to the newborn. This study seeks to determine the best position (on the back versus on the belly) for the newborn during the 30-60 seconds of delayed cord clamping.
This is a randomized controlled trial, aiming to evaluate the effects of time window for umbilical cord clamping during cesarean section on the health outcomes of offspring hemoglobin,maternal blood loss,and children's growth and development. It will be conducted in Liuyang city and Huantai county of China, and the targeted sample size is 360 (180 in each site). All the eligible pregnant women will be randomly assigned to one of the four groups (three intervention groups and one control group), and their babies will be followed up to 18 months of age.
Umbilical cord clumping consists in the binding of the umbilical cord by nipper to interrupt blood flow from placenta to foetus. Umbilical cord can be clamped within 30s or at least 1 min after birth. A lot of studies have shown that delayed umbilical cord clamping is associated with greater haemoglobin concentration, better iron storage between 3-6 months of life and lower incidence for transfusion and neonatal hypotension compared to immediate umbilical cord clumping. Newborns subjected to Caesarean Section showed greater value of haemoglobin and lower value of red blood cells compared to newborns birth by vaginal delivery. Despite evidence of beneficial effects for delayed umbilical cord clamping after eutocic delivery, this practice is not yet taken into consideration after elective Caesarean Section.
The purpose of this research study is to find out how delaying cutting the umbilical cord until one minute after delivery of the baby during a cesarean impacts the amount of blood the mother loses during surgery. The study will also examine the benefits to the newborn from delayed cord clamping during cesarean.
Comparing the beneficial effect of cord milking versus deferred cord clamping in preterm neonates. A randomized controlled trial
The purpose of this study is to determine if delayed cord clamping above the perineum has an effect on neonatal hematocrit when compared to delayed cord clamping below the perineum in pre-term spontaneous vaginal deliveries.
