As many of you deal with newborn care in the hospital setting I would
appreciate your feedback regarding Care of the Umbilical Cord after
delivery ie. triple dye, alcohol, air drying, also as on going treatment
until cord separates.  There has been some studies done re air drying only.
 Presently we are thinking of changing our procedure and would appreciate
to hear what others are doing.  Research studies would be appreciated to
refer to
