Three groups of healthy full term neonates, differing in delivery modalities (elective caesarean section, labor of greater than or less than 7 hours) were investigated during sleep to evaluate postnatal adaptation. Adaptation modalities were assessed by NBAS, using the cluster of the decrements. It was found that neonatal responses change during sleep in relation to delivery modalities and to type of stimuli applied.
