PREMOD2 Trial Summary

This trial will compare the early hemodynamic effects of delayed cord clamping to umbilical cord milking.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for premature newborns between 23 weeks and nearly 28 weeks old who are already enrolled in the PREMOD2 trial. It's not open to those where Near Infrared Spectroscopy (NIRS) devices or research personnel aren't available.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study compares two methods of helping babies just born prematurely: Umbilical Cord Milking (UCM) and Delayed Cord Clamping (DCC). It measures early effects on heart rate, brain oxygen, blood pressure, and other vital signs from birth up to one day old.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since this study observes natural procedures rather than drugs, traditional side effects are not applicable. However, there may be differences in physiological responses like blood pressure or oxygen levels between the two methods.
