VentFirst: A Multicenter RCT of Assisted Ventilation During Delayed Cord Clamping for Extremely Preterm Infants
-
- STATUS
- Not Recruiting
Summary
We are testing whether assisting breathing prior to cord clamping at 120 seconds is beneficial compared to the current standard of care. At IU the current standard for EPT babies is clamping the cord at 30 seconds after birth if the baby is not breathing well, or 60 seconds after birth if the baby is breathing well. Breathing assistance is given after the cord is clamped.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether delaying the clamping of the cord up to 120 seconds and assisting breathing for EPT babies during that time before clamping the umbilical cord can reduce IVH and perhaps some other complications of prematurity.
