Timing of cord clamping and calcium levels in newborns
Part of Hormones & metabolism clinical trials.
This trial looks at whether when the umbilical cord is clamped (early or late) affects calcium levels in healthy full-term babies. It may help doctors choose the best timing for your baby's health.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests whether giving calcium through an IV can help reduce heavy bleeding when women need an emergency cesarean section after labor has started. If it works, it could make the surgery safer for mothers who are at risk of losing too much blood.
This study compares waiting a bit before clamping the umbilical cord versus clamping it right away for babies born between 32 and 37 weeks of pregnancy. It helps determine which approach may be better for preterm infants.
This trial studies a different way of clamping the umbilical cord after birth to see if it helps moderately preterm babies (born between 32 and 37 weeks). It may improve their health right after delivery.
This trial looks at whether different positions for the baby while waiting to clamp the umbilical cord can improve the baby's comfort and health measures. It is for full-term, healthy babies born vaginally.
This study looks at how long to wait before clamping the umbilical cord in babies born with a heart condition. It helps doctors understand the best timing for these newborns.
This trial tests a special care bundle for clamping the umbilical cord immediately after birth in first-time mothers. It aims to improve outcomes for both mother and baby.
