Ítem Acceso Abierto Beneficios del pinzamiento tardío del cordón umbilical en el recién nacido(Universidad Católica de Cuenca., 2024) Salinas Cano, Briggette Anahi; Herrera Jaramillo, María Isabel; 1105070161Introduction: Delayed clamping of the umbilical cord has been discussed since the last century, especially when clinical practices began this procedure between two and three minutes after delivery or until the cord pulsations ceased, sometimes extending the delay up to twenty seconds after delivery. Scientific evidence shows that this practice increases hemoglobin concentrations in neonates, helping to prevent certain pathologies. Therefore, although the benefits of this practice are outlined, there is no scientific reference on the definitive time at which cord clamping should be performed. Objective: To determine the benefits of delayed clamping of the umbilical cord in newborns Methodology: A documentary research technique was used to collect articles from indexed journals and publications with scientific endorsement. In addition, a content analysis was conducted on the selected articles to identify information exclusively related to delayed umbilical cord clamping. Result: It is determined that the ideal timing to perform delayed clamping is three minutes after birth. Conclusions: This procedure's main benefit is reducing anemia in newborns. It also promotes direct placental transfusion, increases iron levels, prevents intraventricular hemorrhage, and reduces necrotizing enterocolitis or late sepsis.
