Summary

The first major intervention a newborn infant is facing following birth is clamping of the umbilical cord. This means separation of the infant from the placenta, the newborn becomes an independent individual, especially from a cardio-circulatory perspective. There is still a lack of understanding of the issues associated with umbilical cord clamping. The aim of the present study is to investigate whether cord clamping after onset of sufficient spontenous breathing is able to improve systemic and cerebral oxygenation in term infants delivered vaginally.

  • Near-Infrared Spectroscopy
  • Umbilical Cord Issue

Interventions

PROCEDURE

physiological-based cord clamping

The cord of the newborn infant is clamped after establishing stable breathing efforts. The suspected time ranges from 2-4 minutes.
