U.S., Feb. 5 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07385326) titled 'Umbilical Cord Clamping Methods and Stem Cell Counts in Preterm Infants' on Jan. 27.
Brief Summary: This study evaluates the effect of different umbilical cord clamping methods on peripheral blood hematopoietic stem cell counts in preterm newborns.
Preterm infants were randomly assigned to different umbilical cord clamping strategies as part of routine obstetric care. Peripheral blood samples were collected after birth to assess stem cell concentrations.
The aim of the study was to determine whether physiological cord management strategies could influence early hematologic adaptation in preterm infants. The study was conducted usin...
