“…Additionally, as shown in Table 2, there were no statistically significant differences in the postpartum hemorrhage rates between the study and control group's laboring mothers as well. In a study conducted in Benha, Egypt, Heba et al (2018) found that DCC lowers the incidence of PPH, with highly statistically significant differences between participants at both early and late cord clamping. Another article There was no association between DCC and the rise of PPH, according to Mohammad et al (2021), who disagreed with this finding.…”

Background: Third-stage labor with a Delayed Cord Clamp (DCC), is still being discussed and there are currently no definite regulations or instructions for doctors to abide by, and little knowledge exists on the possible consequences for both the mother and the baby. Aim: Evaluate the effect of delayed cord clamp on maternal and neonatal outcomes. Methods: The posttest-only quasi-experimental research design was carried out. This study was conducted at the labor and delivery unit at Mansoura University Hospital (MUH). A convenient sample of 200 laboring mothers. The first 100 mothers were the study group. The second 100 mothers were the control group. Four tools were utilized to gather data. structured interview questionnaire the maternal assessment, the maternal satisfaction questionnaire and the neonatal assessment tool. Results: More than three-quarters of the study group compared to less than two-thirds of the control group had a duration third stage of labor within 5-10 minutes with a highly statistically significant difference at (p=0.001). Three cases of postpartum hemorrhage occur in the DCC group as compared to 5% in the control group. There was a noticeable contrast in the health of newborn babies between the two groups after 24 hours, particularly in regard to hemoglobin, hematocrit, ferritin, and total bilirubin levels. Conclusion: Delayed cord clamp is a safe and simple procedure during the third stage of labour and is associated with better maternal and neonatal outcomes with no adverse effects. Recommendations: DCC should be performed routinely on all laboring mothers throughout the third stage of labor in all delivery units.

“…Early skin to skin contact involves placing the dried naked baby prone on the mother's bare chest immediately after birth, often covered with a warm cloth. 5,6 A comparative study between ECC and DCC was carried out on a select group of primigravida without any high-risk factor and delivering at term.…”

Before the mid-1950s, Early Cord Clamping (ECC) meant clamping the umbilical cord within one minute of birth. Delayed Cord Clamping (DCC), on the other hand, involved clamping the cord more than five minutes after birth. After birth, because of noticing changes in blood volume and the absence of clear guidance on the best timing, early cord clamping became a usual practice, typically happening within 15-20 seconds of birth. The objective of the study is to identify the effects of DCC and early skin-to-skin contact on mother’s physiological parameters, breastfeeding behaviour, and post-partum haemorrhage compared to Early Cord Clamping. A group of 300 mothers and their newborns were studied after the mothers agreed to participate. The mothers were split into two groups, each with 150 participants. Group A experienced DCC and ESS contact, while Group B had Early Cord Clamping. The study's results showed similar findings in both groups regarding the average Hb level and maternal blood loss. Postpartum haemorrhage was less among DCC compared to early group with significant difference was observed. This study discovered that DCC with ESSC has a positive impact on preventing postpartum haemorrhage. This is achieved through improved breastfeeding and bonding. The study found that the side effects of DCC and ESSC are not significant. So, DCC and ESSC should be practiced in term uncomplicated deliveries.
