“…In premature infants, studies have shown that milking of the umbilical cord causes higher haemoglobin values, higher blood pressure and less need for transfusions when compared to early clamping without milking of the umbilical cord (21,22). Corresponding findings of higher haemoglobin values and improved iron status have been observed after milking of the umbilical cord of term neonates (23).…”

Appendix at www.tidsskriftet.no/ lundbergengappendiksThe article is based on a student assignment for medical studies at the University of Tromsø. MAIN MESSAGELess than half of all Norwegian maternity units had written routines for clamping of the umbilical cord.The timing of the clamping and practices for holding the child below the introitus appear to vary greatly.There is a need for national guidelines for clamping of the umbilical cord in neonates.BACKGROUND The timing and practice used for umbilical cord clamping of neonates are controversial internationally as well as in Norway. We therefore wished to investigate routines and practices for umbilical cord clamping of neonates in Norway.

“…If this amount could be forced to the fetus it might have increased the Hb in the newborns of UCM arm further. Previous studies conducted had different number of sweeps (ranging from two to four) used for UCM 9,22,24 . Our method consisted of only three sweeps of the cord.…”

“…In such situations, umbilical cord milking (UCM) can be practiced to transfer the extra blood. UCM has been demonstrated to reduce blood transfusions and increase hemoglobin in both preterm and term infants [2,3]. Both UCM and DCC have been shown to result in similar increase in placental fetal transfusion [4].…”
