Actual (reported)The primary purpose of the trial is to evaluate whether the management of placental delivery with controlled cord traction (CCT) reduces the incidence of postpartum haemorrhage, compared with management waiting for clinical signs of spontaneous placental separation, in women with vaginal delivery receiving prophylactic oxytocin for the management of the third stage of labour. The hypothesis is that CCT, by reducing the length of the third stage of labour, facilitates early postpartum uterine contraction and local haemostasis and decreases post partum blood loss.

Controlled cord traction will be applied as soon as a firm uterine contraction is obtained, and until placental delivery occurs.
Clinical signs of placental separation will be awaited for, and then placental expulsion may be helped through maternal pushing and/or hypogastric pressure
