Abstract
Objective: The aim of study is to evaluate the effects of postpartum cord clamping on the female’s health and what happens to blood cells count throughout the third stage of labor. Methodology: In this retrospective study, we investigated 220 live, term, spontaneous vertex births. They were divided in two groups; Group1, 110 cases with cord clamping delayed and Group 2, 110 with early cord clamped. Age, BMI, gravida, para, and abortion were all recorded. Both groups took PCV individually before and after labor. Results: In delay group, 77.3% were above 30 years age. In the study, 13.6% were overweight and 18.2% obese. 72.7% had 1-3 pregnancies, 81.8% had no abortions. PCV after birth, separated time, and expulsion time vary by group. Females with early cord clamped had lower PCV after birth. While separated and expulsion times was higher with early cord clamp. Conclusion: Postponing cord clamping during the third stage of labor increases PCV levels while lowering separation and expulsion times. Obesity increases separation and expulsion times. Over 30 years old increases separation and expulsion time.
