The guidance team will be publishing papers detailing the philosophy behind the work, methods and the four new systematic reviews over the next few months. There will also be a piece in Midwives Magazine very shortly providing information about the development of the guidance. We anticipate that the cycle of three-yearly reviews of this.
Delayed or deferred cord clamping (DCC) allows the baby to benefit from the continued supply of oxygenated blood from the placenta until spontaneous breathing is established 3,7, which can be of particular importance in the preterm neonate.
Delaying cord clamping allows blood flow between the placenta and neonate to continue, which may improve iron status in the infant for up to six months after birth. This may be particularly relevant for infants living in low-resource settings with reduced access to iron-rich foods.
Care was observed for 100 births; all received oxytocin and controlled cord traction. Cord clamping was within ten seconds for 32 births and within thirty seconds for 85. There is variation in timing of cord clamping. A trial comparing the effects of delayed, rather than early, cord clamping appears feasible.
Delayed cord clamping allows the blood from the placenta to continue being transferred to the baby even after they are born. This means that the baby could receive up to 214g of cord blood, which is about 30% more blood than they would have without it. The benefits of this include.
One such study, a Cochrane review on early versus delayed clamping in pre-term infants, concludes that “delaying cord clamping (in pre-term infants) by 30 to 120 seconds, rather than early clamping, is associated with less need for transfusion and less intraventricular haemorrhage.”.

Thus the opening comment of this highly influential report states: Aldihani, Adel Enhancing the cord of PV system in dusty environment.
Delayed umbilical cord clamping is usually performed 25 seconds to 5 minutes after giving birth. DCC allows more blood to transfer from the placenta to the baby, sometimes increasing the child’s blood volume by up to a third. The iron in the blood increases the newborn’s iron storage, which is vital for healthy brain development.

Background: Delayed umbilical cord clamping is associated with significant benefits to preterm and term newborns and is recommended for all infants by the World Health Organization and the.
Established in 2006, the National Neonatal Audit Programme (NNAP) is commissioned by the Healthcare Quality Improvement Partnership (HQIP), funded by NHS England, the Scottish Government and the Welsh Government, and is delivered by the RCPCH. We are currently contracted to deliver the NNAP from April 2017 to April 2021.
