Abstract
Retrospective cohort study. Asphyxia babes 104 cases from Jan. 2011 to Dec. 2013 in the seconde maternal and neonate hospital in Jinan Shandong province received immediate cord clamping and transferring to the emergence-bed for the resuscitation process were enrolled as controlled group; experimental group were those asphyxia babes 94 cases from Jan. 2014 to Dec. 2016 where they were resuscitated with intact cord in delivery bed.
Highlights
The benefit of delayed cord clamping till the pulsation of the cord ceased has been proved both to mothers and babies, as increased hemoglobin levels and iron store of babies at first 6 months [1,2]
Asphyxia babes 104 cases from Jan. 2011 to Dec. 2013 in the seconde maternal and neonate hospital in Jinan Shandong province received immediate cord clamping and transferring to the emergence-bed for the resuscitation process were enrolled as controlled group; experimental group were those asphyxia babes 94 cases from Jan. 2014 to Dec. 2016 where they were resuscitated with intact cord in delivery bed
The rate of asphyxia in two groups were not of statistical difference (χ2 = 2.043 P = 0.153; asphyxia rate at five minute in experimental group 4.3% (4/94) was lower than that in controlled group 13.5% (14/104, of statistical difference (χ2 = 4.968, P = 0.026)
Summary
The benefit of delayed cord clamping till the pulsation of the cord ceased has been proved both to mothers and babies, as increased hemoglobin levels and iron store of babies at first 6 months [1,2]. For the asphyxia babies, argues remain for the keeping warm by transferring to the radiators and resuscitation on this table, that will cut the cord and this may be deprived the asphyxia babies the oxygen and nutrient supplies from the placenta while their lungs not start to work properly. We have applied delayed cord clamping on resuscitation of asphyxia babies since 2014, and 94 cases asphyxia babies recovered and survived without palsy or other complications that offered good news to supporting the delayed cord clamping on asphyxia babies. We compared those case with data of asphyxia babies that were resuscitation in traditional methods that cutting cord and transferred to the bedsides radiator tables
