Study Summary

This is an experimental research study for pregnant women between 23 and 37 weeks age of gestation who will be having a baby sooner than term. This study is to learn if waiting 20, 40, or 60 seconds to clamp the umbilical cord after baby delivers will improve his/her outcome and overall health. Benefit to the baby may come by increasing the amount of blood in the baby's body, reducing the need for possible transfusion later, and possible prevention of other complications caused by too little blood in the baby. Possible reduction of cerebral palsy may be realized by a longer interval for cord clamping.

Primary Outcome

WE are seeking the length of time to delay cord clamping for various gestational age groups following vaginal or cesarean delivery in order to significantly improve primary outcome.

Interventions

  • OTHER Clamp cord 20, 40 or 60 seconds following vaginal or cesarean delivery
