Abstract
Objective To observe the effect of adverse factors on neurodevelopmental development of neonates during pregnancy. Methods The prenatal stress mothers were selected by the Life Event Scale and their neonatal were as the prenatal stress group. The newborns of normal mothers were as the control group. Results The NBNA scores of the prenatal stress group were significantly lower than those in the control group (33.16±2.35 vs 38.36±2.13, t=-9.724, P<0.01), specialty in light and tone habit. Gender and mode of delivery had no effect on NBNA scoring. Conclusion Prenatal stress can result in a reduction in neonatal NBNA scores and is independent of the mode of delivery and gender.
