No results posted yet for this study

Summary

A newborn's recognition and preference for their mother's voice occurs early in life, very likely during fetal development. Maternal voice stimuli undergo a unique form of cerebral processing that lends support for the existence of neurophysiologic mechanisms that reflect a child's preference for his/her mother's voice. This study aims to evaluate and compare the effect t of maternal sound listening in children undergoing cardiac surgery on stress response and physiological parameters.

Conditions
