Plain-language summary

To investigate the effect of delayed cord clamping (DCC) on hematopoietic progenitor cells (HPCs), hematological parameters including haemoglobin concentration and hematocrit value in premature infants (34 weeks gestational age or less) with placental insufficiency.We hypothesized that preterm infants with placental insufficiency underwent DDC could have better hematologic parameters and hematopoietic progenitor cells compared to immediate cord clamping.
