Abstract

The workshop will start with a presentation of the research evidence for the harm of early cord clamping currently necessary to move the neonate over to a room side resuscitation trolley. The workshop will then explore procedures necessary to provide neonatal resuscitation at the side of the mother with the cord and placental circulation intact, while at the same time meeting all the recommendations of the International Liaison Committee on Neonatal Resuscitation and the World Health Organization/Maternal and Child Health Integrated Program. Delegates will be encouraged and guided within a small team to develop their own procedures which can be applied within their own clinical environment. The role of each member of the team, obstetrician, neonatologist/ANNP and assistants and the position of the mother, neonate during resuscitation is optimized. Monitoring and documentation of the condition of the neonatal heart rate etc achieved while at the same time preventing hypothermia. All the facilities of the standard room side resuscitation trolley can be available. Team practice will be available with manikins.

Biography

David James Riddell Hutchon has 28 years of experience as a Consultant Obstetrician. In 2003, he realized that clamping the umbilical cord quickly after birth severely disrupted neonatal circulation and interfered with transition. He has published and lectured extensively on the subject and co-operating with UK and international colleagues developed equipment and ways of providing neonatal resuscitation at the side of the mother without clamping the cord. He has Coauthored a chapter on neonatal care immediately after birth, co-authored two Cochrane systematic reviews and has organized five international conferences on the subject of mother side neonatal resuscitation.
