Pregnancy Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effects of Physical Activity During Pregnancy on the Newborn's Cognitive Function, the Healthy Mom, Bright Child Randomized Trial
Background: It is now generally accepted that an active lifestyle is beneficial for
cognition, but can these benefits be transmitted for the active pregnant woman to her unborn
child? This has been demonstrated in rats where the pups born of mothers who exercised
during pregnancy had increased hippocampal neurogenesis and better memory and learning
capabilities. Human studies tend to confirm this by looking at behavioral results, ie.
better orientation and state regulation skills in newborns. The aim of the present study is
to verify this on the electrophysiological level and to determine the effects of an active
lifestyle during pregnancy on the newborn's brain development.
Methods: 60 pregnant women will be included in a randomized controlled trial. The exercise
group will be asked to exercise a minimum of 20 minutes, 3 times per week, at a minimal
intensity of 55% of their maximal aerobic capacity. The control group will not be given
exercise counselling. Newborns' brain activity will be recorded using electroencephalography
(EEG) 10 days post partum. The primary outcome measure will be the amplitude and latency of
the mismatch negativity (MMN), a component of the auditory event-related potential (ERP)
that can be used to investigate the auditory sensory memory.
