Popis: AIM To compare postnatal adaptation between Caesarean and vaginal deliveries, by studying sleep states, oxygenation, heart rate and body movements. Another aim was to follow the adaptation of healthy, term, vaginally born babies. METHODS Ten vaginally born and 12 neonates born by elective Caesarean section were recorded with a movement sensor (SCSB, static-charge-sensitive bed), electrocardiogram and oximeter. The recordings started 1.5 h after birth and lasted for 12 h. For the vaginal group, another 12 h recording was performed during the third night postpartum. RESULTS Delivery mode did not affect sleep state distribution. The vaginal group had more oxyhaemoglobin desaturation episodes
