The purpose of this study was to comprehensively examine physical, neurological, and psychological health in a U.S. sample of 180 infants at age 17.
The World Health Organization International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health model framed the health-related domains and contextual factors. Assessments included growth, chronic conditions, neurological status, and psychological health.
Physical health, growth, and neurological outcomes were poorer in the preterm groups. Minor neurological impairment was related to integrative function. Preterm survivors reported higher rates of depression, anxiety, and inattention/hyperactivity.
Complex health challenges confront preterm survivors at late adolescence, suggesting the necessity of continued health surveillance.
本研究的目的是全面检查美国180名17岁婴儿样本的身体、神经和心理健康状况。
世界卫生组织《国际功能、残疾和健康分类》模型构建了与健康相关的领域和背景因素。评估包括生长发育、慢性病、神经状况和心理健康。
早产组的身体健康、生长发育和神经学结果较差。轻度神经损伤与综合功能有关。早产幸存者报告的抑郁、焦虑和注意力不集中/多动发生率较高。
早产幸存者在青春期后期面临复杂的健康挑战,这表明持续进行健康监测的必要性。
