Abstract
Objective: The current study is designed to assess the relation between the duration of fetal extraction during cesarean section and the incidence of occurrence of transient tachypnea of the newborn. Study Design: Two Hundred (200) pregnant women were included in the study fulfilling the inclusion and exclusion criteria. Time from incision of the skin till clamping of the cord and time from incision of the uterus till clamping of the cord were recorded. Apgar score at 5 minutes, respiratory rate and weight of neonate were reported by the pediatrician, and then occurrence of Transient Tachypnea of Newborn (TTN) among the studied neonates was observed. Results: No correlation between the duration of fetal extraction, either S-C interval U-C interval, and development of TTN. No correlation between the duration of fetal extraction, either S-C interval or U-C interval, and Apgar score, recorded at 5 minutes. Conclusion: No correlation between the duration of fetal extraction during cesarean section and development of transient tachypnea of the newborn
