Brief Summary

The aim of this work is to compare the effectiveness of placental cord drainage with no drainage in reducing the duration and blood loss in 3rd stage of labour.

Conditions

Obstetric Delivery

Study Design

• Allocation Method: RANDOMIZED
• Intervention Model: PARALLEL
• Primary Study Purpose: PREVENTION
• Blinding Strategy: NONE

Study Groups

placental cord drainage

In 90 women after vaginal delivery of the baby, the placental end of the cut umbilical cord 1st will be clamped for few seconds and then unclamped and left open to drain blood in a vessel until flow stoped. This will prevent the drained blood from getting mixed with blood lost in the 3rd stage.

Group Type: EXPERIMENTAL

placental cord drainage

Intervention Type: PROCEDURE

In the study group a of total number of 90 women placental end of the cut umbilical cord 1st will be clamped for few seconds and then unclamped and left open to drain blood in a vessel until flow stoped. This will prevent the drained blood from getting mixed with blood lost in the 3rd stage.

Blood loss in the third stage will be measured using a Kelly's pad which will be used during delivery and the blood lost will be collected in a clean metal bowl which will be kept at the tail end of Kelley's pad.

Non placental cord drainage

In 90 women after vaginal delivery of the baby placental end of the cut umbilical cord will be kept clamped.

Group Type: ACTIVE_COMPARATOR

non placemtal cord drainage

Intervention Type: PROCEDURE

In 90 women after vaginal delivery of the baby placental end of the cut umbilical cord will be kept clamped.
