Sponsored by Benha University · Not applicable, Interventional, and Other
The objective of this clinical trial is to investigate the effects of delayed cord clamping on hyperbilirubinemia, the need for phototherapy, neonatal intensive care (NICU) admission
The study will include term or preterm infants born to Rh negative mother.
The enrolled infants will be randomized into two groups:
Group (1) will include infants with delayed cord clamping performed at 60 sec after birth Group (2) will include infants with early cord clamping within 15 seconds.
History and examination The data on the gender, gestational age, birth weight, length, head circumference, 5- minute Apgar scores, presence of jaundice requiring phototherapy or exchange transfusion, need for admission in neonatal intensive care unit, the presence of respiratory distress (RR > 60 breath per minute) ,and length of hospitalization will be recorded.
The enrolled infants will be followed either with their mothers in the nursery or in NICU. Regarding the mothers; maternal age, maternal weight, any diseases, medication, and mode of delivery, and postpartum hemorrhage requiring blood transfusion will be recorded.
