Simple cord squeeze could save newborns from brain damage
NCT ID NCT03657394
Summary
This study is testing if a simple technique called umbilical cord milking is better than immediately clamping the cord for newborns who are limp and not breathing well at birth. The goal is to see if gently squeezing blood from the cord toward the baby before cutting it can reduce the risk of brain injury or death. Over 3,400 newborns who needed immediate resuscitation were enrolled to compare the two approaches.
