Effect of delayed cord clamping on stem cell transfusion and hematological parameters in preterm infants with placental insufficiency: a pilot randomized trial
Conclusion: In conclusion, DCC compared with ICC increased stem cell transfusion and decreased early- and late-onset anemia in preterm infants with placental insufficiency.Trial registration: NCT03731546www.clinicaltrials.govWhat is Known:• Delayed cord clamping has been recommended by the American Academy of Pediatrics as a standard of care practice during delivery of preterm infants.• The feasibility of DCC in preterm infants with placental insufficiency (PI) is uncertain.What is New:• This randomized controlled trial demonstrated that DCC in the delivery room care of preterm infants born to mothers with placental insufficiency increased stem cell transfusion and decreased early- and late-onset anemia.
