ABSTRACT:
A device for clamping and then cutting an umbilical cord in separate and distinct clamping and cutting steps. Two parallel clamps are held together by two bridges held between the blades of a pair of scissors. As the blades move towards each other, the umbilical cord is first clamped, and then the scissors are removed from the bridges, and thereafter the scissors sever the umbilical cord. The bridges are then removed from the clamp affixed to the portion of the umbilical cord attached to the newborn child.
