Umbilical cord clamp, single-use

An umbilical cord clamp is a single-use surgical tool used immediately after birth to control bleeding from the umbilical cord. Clinically, it ensures safe and sterile compression before the cord is cut or secured with a clip, helping prevent hemorrhage and maintaining aseptic conditions during delivery.

These devices are typically classified as single-use medical instruments and are regulated under general surgical instrument guidelines. They are supplied sterile and designed for one-time use, with materials like plastic and optional features like serrations for better grip.
