The main recommendations of WHO and the international medical communities on the use of delayed clamping of the umbilical cord, both in full-term and premature babies, are considered. The foreign experience of applying the immediate and delayed clamping of the umbilical cord of newborns during surgical and vaginal births is analyzed and studied.
