Neurobehavioral performance of low-birthweight infants at 40 weeks conceptional age: comparison with normal fullterm infants / Diane KURTZBERG in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 21-5 (October 1979)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 21-5 (October 1979) . - p.590-607 Titre : Neurobehavioral performance of low-birthweight infants at 40 weeks conceptional age: comparison with normal fullterm infants Type de document : texte imprimé Auteurs : Diane KURTZBERG, Auteur ; Herbert G. VAUGHAN, Auteur ; Cecelia DAUM, Auteur ; Bruce A. GRELONG, Auteur ; Susan ALBIN, Auteur ; Laurence ROTKIN, Auteur Année de publication : 1979 Article en page(s) : p.590-607 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study compares the neurobehavioral status of 118 low-birthweight infants tested at 40 weeks conceptional age with that of 76 normal fullterm infants. A neonatal neurobehavioral examination comprising 21 test and four summary items was used. The most striking differences between the groups were found in visual and auditory orienting, with approximately two-thirds of the low-birthweight infants falling below the range of performance of the fullterm group. Items testing motor performance showed a lower incidence of deviant performance among the low-birthweight infants. Of the 21 test items, 19 could be assigned cut-off scores, below which infants can be considered deviant on the specific items.
