However, there is no universally agreed-upon definition for DCC, ECC (early cord clamping) and clamping times vary across studies.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Objective:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>The objective is to assess and contrast the impacts of ECC and DCC on neonatal haemoglobin, haematocrit and serum bilirubin concentrations in full-term neonates.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Methods:<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>This prospective observational study involved 180 uncomplicated full-term pregnancies, divided equally into ECC &lt;30 seconds and DCC1\u20133 minutes groups.
