R2C2: Riza Removable Cord Clamp

R2C2FeaturedR2C2Page2.fw

The R2C2 is the Riza Removable Cord Clamp. With the R2C2, you do not need disposable cutters, nor do you need to send a reusable cutting instrument for sterilization and packaging after it has been used. With the R2C2, the cord clamp is easily removed with a key, either a pink key or blue key, as shown above.

How the R2C2 Works

Applying The R2C2 Cord Clamp:

  1. Place the R2C2’s clamp at a distance of not less than 4 cm from the infant’s belly.
  2. Insert the umbilical cord deep into the “V-point” of the clamp.
  3. Squeeze both ends of the clamp to engage the locking mechanism. The cord will be clamped.
  4. The other end of the umbilical cord (towards the placenta) should be clamped with an existing metal re-usable OB clamp.
  5. Cutting in between the cord clamp and the metal clamp separates the baby from the placental attachment.

Removing The R2C2 Cord Clamp:

  1. The drive head of the R2C2 key is inserted and engaged into the drive socket of the clamp.
  2. Rotate the key counter-clockwise. This disengages the catch of the lock from the latch.
  3. The cord clamp opens and disengages from the cord stump.
  4. Dispose the cord clamp.
  5. Give the key to parents as memoir.
