Umbilical cord infections are a leading cause of infant mortality (IMR) in developing countries, with incidence reaching 55-97 / 1000 live births.Purpose: to know the comparison of topical breast milk methods, sterile gauze and non-treatment on the duration of umbilical cord detachment in the work area of Langsa City Health Service in 2018Methods: this study used a quasi-experimental prospective cohort study design with Without control group design. Observations were carried out after treatment using topical breast milk method, Sterile Gauze method and Non- Treatment method on the umbilical cord detachment.

The data analysis used was one-way ANOVAResults: the results showed that the average length of umbilical cord detachment for the three methods was 6 days, while the fastest time of the umbilical cord detachment was 98.45 hours (4 days) using the topical breast milk method and the longest time of the umbilical cord detachment was 178.39 Hours (7 days) with Sterile Gauze method and Non-Treatment method. Then, one-way ANOVA test results showed that there was a significant difference with the value p value of 0.002.Conclusions: based on the results of this study, it could be concluded that there were differences between the three treatment groups in the duration of the umbilical cord detachment.Suggestion: health education for the community in determining the material for umbilical cord care properly should be according to the procedure so that babies are protected from umbilical cord infection either using the Topical Breast milk method, sterile gauze or other methods.
