Аннотация
BACKGROUND: The foetus is connected to the placenta via the umbilical cord, which enters through the abdomen at the umbilicus. A venous catheter for infusion and medication may be inserted via the umbilical vein, as it is directly related to the central circulation. Since delayed cord clamping increases iron storage after birth, it may help prevent anaemia in later infancy.
METHODS: This randomized controlled trial was conducted in the Department of Obstetrics and Gynaecology at Aziz Bhatti Shaheed Teaching Hospital, Pakistan, over a period of six months, from August 2021 to January 2022. A total of 70 females were enrolled. The neonates were randomly divided into two groups using the lottery method. In group 1, neonates underwent early cord clamping, while in group 2, neonates underwent delayed cord clamping after delivery. Haemoglobin levels were noted and analysed using IBM SPSS Statistics for Windows, Version 20 (Released 2011; IBM Corp., Armonk, New York).
RESULTS: The mean age of patients in the early cord clamping group was 26.80±7.59 years, and in the delayed cord clamping group, it was 28.14±6.12 years. The mean haemoglobin level in the early cord clamping group was 13.84±1.74, while in the delayed cord clamping group, it was 16.34±1.90 (p-value=0.001).
CONCLUSION: In neonates born at term, the mean haemoglobin level in the delayed cord clamping group was significantly higher than that in the early cord clamping group.
