ABSTRACT:
An umbilical cord clamping assembly which in its first embodiment provides for an umbilical cord clamp which is constructed of a pair of spaced-apart clamping members connected by a connecting member. A clamping tool is provided which cooperates with the umbilical cord clamp of this invention which simultaneously causes each clamping member of the umbilical cord clamp to be installed upon the umbilical cord while also cutting of the umbilical cord therebetween and also cutting the connecting member connecting the pair of clamping members. The second embodiment of this invention employs a pair of nonconnected clamping members which are each cradled separately in the clamping tool within a separate spring member. The spring member functions to locate the tool in the open position as well as to accommodate bowing of the clamping members about an unbilical cord. When the clamping tool is completely closed, it becomes locked which must be then deactivated to open the tool. A modification of this second embodiment relates to the using of a special form of clamp which interlocks with the spring member.
