Study Summary

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.

Primary Outcome

At 36-48 hours, term infants (born by planned cesarean section) exposed to umbilical cord milking will have higher hemoglobin and hematocrit levels compared to infants exposed to immediate cord clamping
