Official title
Milking the Umbilical Cord at Term Cesarean Birth: Effect on Hemoglobin Levels in the First 48 Hours of Life
Brief summary
Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.
The purpose of this pilot study is to determine if umbilical cord milking at the time of scheduled cesarean section effects the hemoglobin and hematocrit levels of full-term infants as determined by hemoglobin and hematocrit levels at 36-48 hours of life. This study will help to establish the feasibility of umbilical cord milking as an alternative to delayed clamping at the time of planned cesarean section.
