Delayed Cord Clamping in Infants with Suspected Intrauterine Growth Restriction
Abstract
We evaluated a subset of infants with suspected intrauterine growth restriction or birth weights small for gestational age enrolled in a study of delayed cord clamping for preterm infants. Compared with immediate clamping, delayed cord clamping was associated with no apparent harm and less suspected necrotizing enterocolitis.
Trial registration: ClinicalTrials.gov: NCT00818220 and NCT01426698.
Keywords: absent end-diastolic flow; delayed cord clamping; intrauterine growth restriction; necrotizing enterocolitis; small for gestational age; umbilical cord milking.
