Duration of Cord Clamping and Neonatal Outcomes in Very Preterm Infants

摘要

BackgroundDelayed cord clamping (DCC, ≥30s) increases blood volume in newborns and is associated with fewer blood transfusions and short-term neonatal complications. The optimal timing of cord clamping for very preterm infants should maximize placental transfusion without interfering with stabilization and resuscitation.
