“…Delayed cord clamping allows more time for placental transfusion which in turn protects the newborn from anemia without increased risk of jaundice [11,[13][14][15]. Furthermore, infants gain protected time for adjustment because circulation from the placenta continues for a few minutes after birth and the newborn continues to obtain oxygen through the umbilical cord [11,15].…”

Objective: To compare the effects of early versus delayed cord clamping of term births on maternal and neonatal outcomes. Method: A quasi-experimental study was conducted at the Jordan University Hospital in Amman. One hundred twenty-eight mothers expecting a full-term singleton baby were assigned to delayed cord clamping (90 seconds) or early cord clamping (<30 seconds). Results: Delayed cord clamping was associated with higher hemoglobin levels among newborns after 12 hours. On the other hand, early cord clamping was associated with an increased need for oxygen therapy among newborns and occurrence of postpartum hemorrhage among mothers. There were no differences between the groups on any other variable (Apgar score at 1 and 5 minutes, admission to NICU, baby bilirubin levels after 12 hours and day 3 of birth, and mothers' Hb levels after 12 hours of childbirth). Conclusion: Term babies receiving delayed cord clamping had improved hemoglobin levels with no adverse effect on other maternal and neonatal variables. Creating evidence-based practice guidelines for umbilical cord clamping in Jordanian hospitals is essential to improve neonatal and maternal health.

Effect of alternative positions of neonates prior to delayed cord clamping on placental transfusion: a randomized control trial

Abstract: Placing the baby below the placenta resulted in a statistically significant increase in hemoglobin and hematocrit at 3-4 months without any adverse outcomes. However, this meager quantum of increase did not translate into reduction of risk of anemia or improvement in iron stores.
