Effect of duration of delayed cord clamping on serum bilirubin hematocrit and hemodynamic status in neonates

Introduction:DCC is a common practice with several benefits. The benefits of DCC are decreased risk anemia, less incidence periventricular leukomalacia, NEC. This study tries to compare the effect different duration delayed cord clamping on serum bilirubin, hematocrit and hemodynamic status neonate. Material method:A prospective was done over span one year comprising 150 full term neonates. After obtaining consent prior before delivary females who met inclusion criteria were randomly assigned 3 groups.For group 1 clamped at 30 sec, 60 sec for 2 120 3. Exact time recorded using stop watch. Serum bilirubin level parameters like respiratory rate, pulse capillary refill temperature assessed day three. Results: Group showed mean % 41.51 (SD 10.28). 45.11 (9.4) 45.64 (8.37).
