OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical outcomes of using the extra-uterine placental transfusion (EPT) approach in very preterm infants (VPIs, gestational age <32 weeks) and compare this to delayed cord clamping (DCC) after birth.

METHODS: In this matched pairs study, we compared the clinical outcomes of the EPT group to those of the DCC group. EPT were performed in fifty-three VPIs, of whom 27 were singletons and 25 were twins. The singleton VPIs were matched for gestational age (±5 days) and delivery mode, and the twin VPIs were matched between each other with the first twin subjected to DCC and the second twin to EPT. Data on the infants were collected and analysed as an overall group. A twin subgroup consisting of DCC and EPT groups was also analysed separately. The primary study outcome was either death or major morbidities.

RESULTS: In total, 100 infants were included (n = 50 EPT group, n = 50 DCC group). The gestational ages of the DCC and EPT groups were (29.16 ± 1.76) and (29.12 ± 1.84) weeks, respectively. There were no differences in either deaths or major morbidities and other clinical outcomes, including the resuscitation variables, haemoglobin levels and red blood cell transfusion, between the two groups. In twin subgroups (gestational age 29.05 ± 1.89 weeks), EPT was associated with a higher rate of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC) when compared with DCC (odds ratio = 7 (95% CI, 1.06 to 56.89), p = 0.031).

CONCLUSIONS: In twin subgroups, the incidence of NEC was higher in the EPT group when compared to the DCC group and therefore based on an abundance of caution the use of EPT in very preterm twins is not recommended.
