The aim of this study was to analyze the correlation between sensory processing and motor development in preterm infants.
We included 30 preterm and 30 term infants with corrected and chronological ages between 10 and 12 mo. We used the Test of Sensory Functions in Infants to evaluate sensory processing and the Alberta Infant Motor Scale to evaluate motor development.
The Spearman correlation test indicated a strong positive relationship between sensory processing and motor development in preterm infants (r = .63, p < .001).
Given the relationship between sensory processing and motor development in the preterm group, the evaluation of sensory processing and motor development in preterm infants was considered necessary for the effective implementation of physiotherapy assessment and interventions.
本研究旨在分析早产儿感觉加工与运动发育之间的相关性。
我们纳入了30名早产儿和30名足月儿，其矫正年龄和实际年龄在10至12个月之间。我们使用婴儿感觉功能测试来评估感觉加工，并使用艾伯塔婴儿运动量表来评估运动发育。
Spearman相关性检验表明，早产儿的感觉加工与运动发育之间存在强正相关（r = 0.63，p < 0.001）。
鉴于早产组中感觉加工与运动发育之间的关系，认为对早产儿的感觉加工和运动发育进行评估对于有效实施物理治疗评估和干预是必要的。
