In this podcast, Dr. Katheria reviews results from a multi-national, randomized controlled non-inferiority trial comparing umbilical cord milking to delayed cord clamping in premature infants born between 23-31 weeks gestation.

Speakers: Drs. Aleha Aziz and Alex Friedman Recorded: April 2019 Join Drs.

The authors discuss the links between race and ethnicity with maternal morbidity and mortality postpartum in response to a call for action from ACOG/SMFM. Their findings from a national database highlight the importance of exploring future interventions to reduce morbidity and mortality for all women, but especially those in high risk groups.
