Abstract
Of the 424 vaginally delivered infants in our study, 222 were in the early clamp group and 202 in the late clamp group. Thirty infants in the early group and 15 in the late group were low birth weight infants. There was no significant difference in the frequency or severity of respiratory distress between the two groups, in either the term or premature infants. We were unable to demonstrate that the time of the first breath in relation to cord clamping was related to the frequency or severity of respiratory distress.
