Summary

Delayed umbilical cord clamping as well as immediate skin-to-skin contact between mother and newborn are emerging practices due to documented benefits. However, in caesarean sections it is not common.

The investigators evaluate twenty four pares of healthy mothers-newborns, with delayed clamping and immediate skin-to-skin contact after birth by caesarean section (intervention grup), compared to the same number of pairs attended by the same group of physicians under traditional techniques (control group). In both groups, morbidity and mortality as well as sole breastfeeding was evaluated for at least 6 months. The patients in the intervention group signed an informed consent form and the protocol was approved by an ethics committee.

PROCEDURE

Delayed umbilical clamping and immediate skin-to-skin contact after birth by caesarean section

Mother: Placement of the insulating surgical arch was on the skin, between the abdomen and the thorax, electrocautery plate on the back, the gown superimposed, non-invasive blood pressure monitoring in legs and ear oximetry. The newborn was placed immediately on the mother's chest, passing it under the insulating arch and removing the mother's gown. Non-invasive monitoring was initiated with preductal pulse oximetry. The obstetrician cut the umbilical cord by not feeling the beats of the cord, or until 5 minutes. The newborn was reanimated without separating the baby from his mother. The temperature was taken with an infrared thermometer. Pulse oximetry was recorded. The newborn was colocated to the mother's breast as soon as possible, even if the mother was still in surgery. The mother's transfer to her room was with her baby skin to skin. The support staff was instructed not to separate the newborn until breast feeding occur for the first time or the mother required it.
