简要总结
In this randomized controlled Pilot study the effects of cut-umbilical cord milking on cerebral oxygenation and perfusion measured via near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and the effects on stroke volume (SV) and cardiac output (CO) also measured non-invasively in term and preterm infants are evaluated for the first 15 minutes after birth and compared to a control group.
详细描述
Background
The transition to life after birth is a complex physiological process where the neonate has to establish sufficient ventilation and changes from intra-uterine circulation to extra-uterine circulation take place. During these processes the neonate has to provide the brain with adequate perfusion and oxygen delivery to maintain normal cerebral tissue oxygenation and activity. Instability of cerebral perfusion and oxygenation may be associated with brain damage in preterm infants. The concept of C-UCM may substitute the adverse effects of immediate cord clamping by supplying additional placental blood to the infant, which is mostly performed during caesarean section or in the critically ill neonate.
In this randomized controlled Pilot study the effects of cut-umbilical cord milking on cerebral oxygenation and perfusion measured via near-infrared spectroscopy (NIRS) and the effects on stroke volume (SV) and cardiac output (CO) also measured non-invasively in term and preterm infants are evaluated for the first 15 minutes after birth and compared to a control group.
Aim
The aim of the study is to analyse whether C-UCM in preterm and term infants results in an improvement of cerebral oxygenation and perfusion during immediate neonatal transition measured with NIRS.
