Perinatal growth vulnerability (e.g., Small for Gestational Age, SGA) poses the goal to not overlook subtle developmental susceptibilities and their impact on the parent-infant relationship. In this case study, we examined the application of a video-feedback intervention program to support parenting, the Primary Care-Video Intervention Therapy (PC-VIT), specifically developed to fit pediatric care characteristics. The case presentation details the principal steps of the intervention with the family of an SGA infant from birth up to toddlerhood. Findings for this family highlighted initial worries about the infant's growth. Along sessions, PC-VIT held maternal anxiety and sustained parents' abilities to recognize and talk about the infant's developmental skills and regulatory abilities. The PC-VIT shows the powerful opportunity to limit the impact of infant growth vulnerability on the parent-child relationship and socio-emotional development. Pediatricians can prevent vulnerable developmental milestones from clinical outcomes by implementing timely and effective strategies embracing mental health and parenting-related issues.
围产期生长脆弱性（例如，小于胎龄儿，SGA）的目标是不忽视细微的发育易感性及其对母婴关系的影响。在本案例研究中，我们研究了视频反馈干预方案在支持育儿方面的应用，即专门为适应儿科护理特点而开发的初级保健-视频干预治疗（PC-VIT）。案例介绍详细说明了对 SGA 婴儿从出生到幼儿期的家庭进行干预的主要步骤。该家庭的研究结果强调了对婴儿生长的最初担忧。通过课程，PC-VIT 缓解了母亲的焦虑，并维持了父母识别和谈论婴儿发育技能和调节能力的能力。PC-VIT 提供了一个有力的机会，可以限制婴儿生长脆弱性对亲子关系和社会情感发展的影响。儿科医生可以通过实施及时有效的策略来预防脆弱的发育里程碑出现临床结果，这些策略包括关注心理健康和育儿相关问题。
