The study suggests sustained placental circulation through EPT and PBCC may support a more stable early heart rate after caesarean delivery. Extrauterine placental transfusion keeps the newborn and placenta connected after caesarean birth while they are moved together for assessment and stabilisation. The findings suggest that EPT and PBCC may help maintain preload and support cardiovascular stability during newborn transition after caesarean delivery. In the protocol, the placenta was usually delivered without cord clamping after about 60-90 seconds.
