About this study

Official title: Long-term Outcomes of Umbilical Cord Milking in Term and Late Preterm Neonates Who Are Depressed at Birth

An extension of the MIDAB trial, the MIDAB-Follow-up trial will evaluate the neurodevelopmental outcomes at 22-26 months age of term/late preterm infants who were depressed at birth and received umbilical cord milking (UCM) or immediate cord clamping (ICC).

Read the detailed description

The MIDAB-Follow-up trial will examine the difference in survival and neurodevelopmental impairment of infants who were depressed at birth and enrolled in MIDAB trial. The difference in survival and neurodevelopmental impairment in infants who received UCM and ICC will be assessed using standardized neurological and developmental assessment tools at 22-26 months of age.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Umbilical Cord MilkingOther

    At delivery, the umbilical cord is grasped, and blood is pushed toward the infant 4 times before the cord is clamped. This procedure infuses a placental transfusion of blood into the infant and can be done in 10-15 seconds.

Questions about this trial

What is this clinical trial studying?

A study testing Umbilical Cord Milking in people with Hypoxic-Ischemic Encephalopathy and Birth Asphyxia, run by Nemours Children's Clinic at 3 sites in India.

The full registered description is in the About this study section and the official record.

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 1 inclusion and 1 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 3 sites in India. Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

Are results available for this study?

The study was withdrawn before enrolling participants, so there are no results.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Neurodevelopmental Outcome at 2 Years of Age (time frame: 22-26 months). It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?
Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?
