Cord blood boost: new study aims to help tiniest newborns
NCT ID NCT06812507
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looks at three methods of giving premature babies (born at 32 weeks or earlier) extra blood from the placenta right after birth: intact cord milking, cut-cord milking, and delayed cord clamping. Researchers want to see which method best improves the baby's blood health and reduces complications in the first days of life. About 160 babies admitted to the NICU will take part.
