The aim of this study was to establish the effect of treating neonates' umbilical cords with chlorhexidine 0.5% in alcohol 70% on cord separation time and to observe the clinical and microbiological consequences of not treating the cords of healthy neonates. The treated group contained 466 babies whose cords were treated with chlorhexidine, 424 babies were not treated. Microbiological colonisation patterns of the cords of babies in both groups were monitored both for purposes of this investigation and to ensure that no untoward consequences resulted from non-treatment. The research showed that treatment prolonged separation time by 1.7 days, which was significant at the level of p = 0.000, and that normal colonisation was delayed in the treated group.
本研究的目的是确定用70%酒精中的0.5%洗必泰处理新生儿脐带对脐带脱落时间的影响，并观察不处理健康新生儿脐带的临床和微生物学后果。治疗组有466名婴儿，其脐带用洗必泰处理，424名婴儿未接受处理。为了本次调查以及确保不处理不会导致不良后果，对两组婴儿脐带的微生物定植模式进行了监测。研究表明，处理使脱落时间延长了1.7天，在p = 0.000水平具有显著性，并且处理组的正常定植延迟。
