Popis: A group of parturient women (n= 45) was divided into subgroups of subjects with a large and small number of signs of an altered mental state (AMS and NAMS, respectively) during and after labor, according to data of a special psychological questionnaire. The background EEG and the superslow phasic electric processes (SSPP) of the head surface were recorded simultaneously in 16 monopolar leads before and after labor. The parameters of autocorrelation and cross-correlation functions of the processes were calculated. Highly significant differences were found among the subgroups in the parameters of dynamics and spatial synchronization of the SSPP, related, in particular, to the activity of the anterofrontal zones of both hemispheres and of the temporal zones of the right hemisphere. The differences between the AMS and NAMS subgroups were revealed on the basis of the different extents of the unidirectional deviations from the SSPP parameters in the reference group of healthy nulliparous women. The pattern of interrelations of the investigated parameters of the EEG and the SSPP confirms the hypothesis that functional changes in the brain during the adaptation of women to pregnancy termination and physiological labor correlate with a special mental state.
