Abstract

The specific aim of this protocol is to determine the level of cardiovascular function in newborns of mothers who exercised during pregnancy. This study will be carried out on 5 day old newborns delivered of healthy adult female volunteers who had an uncomplicated pregnancy and delivery and either exercised or not. At the visit data will be recorded from an m-mode ultrasound that will be used to assess cardiac volumes, mass and function as well as measures of heart rate variability to determine autonomic tone.
