Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: Neonates born between 26-42 weeks gestational age, were stabilisation at birth is anticipated and pulse oximetry will be used for evaluation of the neonate.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Infants participating in the ABC3 trial whom are randomized to physiological-based cord clamping and are stabilized on the Concord resuscitation table.

Design outcomes

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
• The percentage of infants in whom an accurate HR measurement can be obtained with umbilical PO, with measurements being obtained at least 20 seconds earlier (from birth to accurate signal) when compared to the standard PO. • Proportion of infants in whom the PO sensor can successfully be placed on the umbilical cord. • Proportion of infants with an accurate HR signal. • HR (umbilical and right hand ) at 2 second intervals during the first 10 min after birth.

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The time needed to obtain an accurate HR signal after sensor placement. An accurate signal will be defined as a stable display of HR with a good plethysmograph signal, without “low signal” alarms.
