The study's objective was to evaluate the effectiveness of the Interdisciplinary Sensory-Enriched Early Intervention (ISEEI) group program for children with developmental delays.
We conducted a retrospective chart review of 63 children ages 18-36 mo who participated in ISEEI. We evaluated participants with the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development III (Bayley-III) and the Infant/Toddler Sensory Profile (ITSP) at enrollment and after 3-9 mo. We conducted a paired t test to examine changes in the Bayley-III between pre- and posttests.
At enrollment, 70% of children presented atypical scores in two or more areas of sensory processing in the ITSP. Results revealed that children with sensory processing difficulties demonstrated significant improvement in all areas of development except fine motor skills; children without sensory processing difficulties showed significant improvement in language and cognition.
The ISEEI group program is an effective method to ameliorate developmental delays.
本研究的目的是评估跨学科感官丰富早期干预(ISEEI)小组项目对发育迟缓儿童的有效性。
我们对63名年龄在18至36个月之间参与ISEEI的儿童进行了回顾性病历审查。我们在入组时以及3至9个月后,使用贝利婴幼儿发展量表第三版(Bayley-III)和婴幼儿感官概况量表(ITSP)对参与者进行评估。我们进行了配对t检验,以检查前测和后测之间Bayley-III的变化。
入组时,70%的儿童在ITSP的两个或更多感官处理领域表现出非典型分数。结果显示,有感官处理困难的儿童在除精细运动技能外的所有发育领域都有显著改善;没有感官处理困难的儿童在语言和认知方面有显著改善。
ISEEI小组项目是改善发育迟缓的有效方法。
