Timing of cord clamping (was Birth Plans)From: Arthurfree@aol.comSun Jun 22 12:21:11 1997
In a message dated 97-06-22 08:01:16 EDT, you write: << 3) I have seen reports recommending that the cord not be clamped until it has quit pulsing. I'm not impressed with the reasoning or the science behind it. >> I would be interested in hearing synopses of *any* research on the subject. I had always thought that this recommendation was made for emergency and home births only because there was no completely reliable way to prevent hemorrhage from the cord. If there is effective oxygen transport still occurring through the placenta, I suppose it could be somewhat protective until the infant succeeds in transition to postnatal circulation.

The American Medical Association is no longer designating CME hours for AMA Category II CME credit. However, physicians themselves may self designate learning activities as Category II CME credit hours if they feel it is of sufficient educational merit and meets the formal definitions of continuing medical education. OBGYN.net believes these interaction in this forum meets these criteria. For further information see the AMA web site.
