Neuro Cognitive Improvement During Pregnancy: An Auditory Event Related Potential (ERP) and Neuropsychological Study

Abstract

Background: Although there is increasing research interest in auditory cognitive function among pregnant women, little is known about auditory cognitive function during the second (mid) and third trimesters of pregnancy. Therefore, we investigated auditory cognitive and behavioral functions during the mid-and third trimesters of pregnancy using event related potentials (ERPs) and neuropsychological tests, respectively.
