Eligibility Criteria

undefined - undefined (Child, Adult, Older Adult)All SexesDoes not accept healthy volunteers

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Preterm infants less than 34 weeks' gestation born by cesarean section

Exclusion Criteria:

  • Inability to obtain informed consent from the mother state

Arms of the Study

Arm 1

Arm 2

Arm Type

Experimental

Active Comparator

Arm Label

Umbilical cord milking

Delayed cord clamping

Arm Description

Once the preterm is born keep the baby from the mother's thighs. The obstetrician cord milking three times (2seconds/milking) taking the cord from the base 20cm respect towards the baby. Then clamp de cord.

Once the preterm is born the neonatologist keep the baby beside the mother at level of the operating table during 30 seconds without cord clamping. The baby is covered with a polythene bag and put a cap on his head. Then the obstetritian clamp the cord.
