Infants born late preterm (34-36 weeks of gestation) account for 350 000 US births per year, are at risk for developmental delays, and are rarely included in intervention studies.
To describe a novel parent-delivered movement intervention program for very young infants and outcomes following intervention and to evaluate the feasibility of using a comprehensive set of outcome measures.
Two infants born late preterm received intervention from 0.5 to 2.0 months of adjusted age. Development, postural control, reaching, and object exploration assessments were completed at 3 time points. The intervention was well tolerated by the family. Improvements in developmental outcomes, postural control, and object exploration are presented.
Very early movement experience provided daily by parents may improve development. In combination, norm-referenced and behavioral measures appear sensitive to changes in infant behaviors.
晚期早产儿(妊娠34 - 36周)每年在美国出生35万例,有发育迟缓风险,且很少被纳入干预研究。
描述一种针对极幼龄婴儿的新型家长实施的运动干预项目以及干预后的结果,并评估使用一套综合结局指标的可行性。
两名晚期早产儿在矫正年龄0.5至2.0个月时接受干预。在3个时间点完成发育、姿势控制、够物和物体探索评估。家庭对干预耐受性良好。呈现了发育结局、姿势控制和物体探索方面的改善。
家长每日提供的极早期运动体验可能改善发育。结合起来,常模参照和行为指标似乎对婴儿行为变化敏感。
