Summary

The sequence of events at the time of delivery includes delivery of the infant, clamping of the umbilical cord, and lastly delivery of the placenta. There are some benefits for delayed cord clamping. This study aims to compare the effects of two different duration of delayed cord clamping.

Infants will be randomized into two groups based on the duration of delayed cord clamping: 30 seconds vs 120 seconds. Different hemodynamic effects will be measured in each group at different time intervals. The hypothesis of the study is that delayed cord clamping for 120 seconds is associated with better cardiac output and with other hemodynamic advantages.
