Neurobehavioral organization describes infants' abilities to organize themselves within their central nervous system maturation and environment. As part of infants' environment, caregivers can structure the environment to support infants' development. Care of the high-risk infant emphasizes support of infants' emerging neurobehavioral organization. This article describes the theoretical rationale of neurobehavioral organization, effect on the infant and family, and assessments available to the neonatal occupational therapist for use with high-risk infants. Information gained via neurobehavioral assessment can be used to engage parents in better understanding their infant's behaviors and interact at a level appropriate with their infant.
神经行为组织描述了婴儿在中枢神经系统成熟和环境中自我组织的能力。作为婴儿环境的一部分，照顾者可以构建环境以支持婴儿的发育。高危婴儿的护理强调对婴儿新兴神经行为组织的支持。本文描述了神经行为组织的理论依据、对婴儿和家庭的影响，以及新生儿职业治疗师可用于高危婴儿的评估方法。通过神经行为评估获得的信息可用于让父母更好地理解婴儿的行为，并以适合婴儿的水平进行互动。
