NCT02103296

Brief Summary

The goal of this protocol is to establish a randomized clinical trial comparing the use of cord blood vs. infant blood with the primary outcome of comparing both the absolute hemoglobin concentration and the percent change in hemoglobin concentration from baseline around 24 hours of life.
