Prone Positioning During Delayed Cord Clamping

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

Delayed cord clamping is a routine technique used in the delivery room. The baby remains attached to the umbilical cord and placenta for 30-60 seconds after birth to allow for maximal transfer of oxygen and blood to the newborn. This study seeks to determine the best position (on the back versus on the belly) for the newborn during the 30-60 seconds of delayed cord clamping.

Participation Criteria

Researchers look for people who fit a certain description, called eligibility criteria. Some examples of these criteria are a person's general health condition or prior treatments.

Ages Eligible for Study:18 Years to 55 Years
Sexes Eligible for Study:FEMALE
Accepts Healthy Volunteers:No
Standard Ages:ADULT
Inclusion CriteriaExclusion Criteria
  1. * Pregnant patient admitted for diagnosis that could result in a preterm delivery
  2. * Anticipated gestational age of delivery could be between 25w+0d - 29w+6d
  3. * Fetus without major anomalies or known genetic condition that could impact respiratory status or need for intubation at birth
  4. * Singleton or twin gestation
  5. * Neonate eligible for delayed cord clamping based on institutional protocol
  6. * Patient is able to understand study procedures and is willing and able to consent
  1. * Triplet or higher order gestation
  2. * Maternal or fetal/neonatal contraindication to delayed cord clamping
  3. * Major fetal anomaly that would be expected to impact delivery room intubation rates such as:
  4. * Major congenital cardiac defect (not isolated atrial septal defect/ventricular septal defect)
  5. * Significant fetal arrhythmia at the time of delivery
  6. * Fetal tumor
  7. * Renal anhydramnios (not isolated urinary tract dilation with normal fluid)
  8. * Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia
  9. * Heterotaxy
  10. * Moderate to severe ventriculomegaly or other major brain malformation (not mild isolated ventriculomegaly)
  11. * Airway obstruction
  12. * Underlying genetic disease that could impact respiratory function at delivery
  13. * Arthrogryposis (not apparently isolated clubbed foot)
  14. * Skeletal dysplasia
  15. * Pregnant patient is unable to understand study materials or is unwilling or unable to consent
  16. * Acute maternal obstetric emergency that precludes time or maternal focus for the consent process to take place
