LifeStart™

In the first few moments of life there can be a real dilemma for clinical staff. Despite the clear evidence outlining the benefits of Optimal Cord Clamping, most guidelines state that priority should be given to resuscitation of the infant.

The LifeStart™ eliminates this dilemma. Designed with input from experienced paediatricians, midwives and obstetricians, its compact design allows the LifeStart™ to be easily positioned close to the mother, enabling the infant’s airway to be supported on a warm platform whilst leaving the umbilical cord intact. This helps to facilitate improved placental transfusion and smoother cardiovascular transition, providing the best starting life for the baby.
