RESEARCH OVERVIEW
Abstract
This article discusses the neurophysiological development of the brain in infants who received different types of feeding (breast milk and infant formula). The psychosomatic status, in the form of sleep-wake rhythms, was assessed using electroencephalography, and the average duration of sleep during the day, as well as the progress of both nighttime and daytime sleep according to the norms of age groups, and the number of daytime and nighttime awakenings, was evaluated. The following differences were found between the groups: in groups 1 and 3, the average duration of a sleep episode was 3-4 hours. Whereas infants and group 2 had an average daytime sleep episode duration of 1.5-2 h. The results obtained were significant (p≤0.05).
