Asymmetrical head-turning of preterm infants: some effects on later postural and functional lateralities / Yukuo KONISHI in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 28-4 (August 1986)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 28-4 (August 1986) . - p.450-457 Titre : Asymmetrical head-turning of preterm infants: some effects on later postural and functional lateralities Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Yukuo KONISHI, Auteur ; Haruki MIKAWA, Auteur ; Junko SUZUKI, Auteur Année de publication : 1986 Article en page(s) : p.450-457 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Asymmetrical head-turning and its effects on subsequent functional lateralities and postural asymmetries were examined in 44 relatively low-risk preterm and 53 fullterm infants. Persisting head-turning to the right was observed more often among preterm infants, as was an asymmetrical skull with flattened right occiput and head-turning to the right. Asymmetrical trunk posture was present in 20 preterm and four fullterm infants. At nine months right-hand preference was more marked in preterm infants, and hand preference was well coincident with head-turning. Changes in hand preference occurred more often among fullterm infants. Asymmetrical gait seemed to correlate with head-turning in preterm infants.

Early physiotherapy in the treatment of spastic diplegia / T. KANDA in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 26-4 (August 1984)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 26-4 (August 1984) . - p.438-444 Titre : Early physiotherapy in the treatment of spastic diplegia Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : T. KANDA, Auteur ; M. YUGE, Auteur ; Y. YAMORI, Auteur ; H. FUKASE, Auteur ; Junko SUZUKI, Auteur Année de publication : 1984 Article en page(s) : p.438-444 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : This study reports the effect of early physiotherapy, using Vojta's method, on children with spastic diplegia. Eight children with spastic diplegia (in spite of early treatment which was started before nine months of age) were compared with 21 children with spastic diplegia in which treatment was started between nine months and three years of age. The average age of starting to walk was eight months earlier in the group treated early, although they had more severe complications. They tended to walk steadily with a gait pattern which was quite different from the classical pattern. All of the early treated patients had confirmed organic brain damage with abnormal CT scan or microcephaly. In conclusion, Vojta's method of treatment is one system which improves the prognosis for walking if performed early.

Effect of body position on later postural and functional lateralities of preterm infants / Yukuo KONISHI in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 29-6 (December 1987)

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 29-6 (December 1987) . - p.751-757 Titre : Effect of body position on later postural and functional lateralities of preterm infants Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Yukuo KONISHI, Auteur ; Haruki MIKAWA, Auteur ; Junko SUZUKI, Auteur ; Masanori KURIYAMA, Auteur Année de publication : 1987 Article en page(s) : p.751-757 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The effects of body position during the neonatal period on subsequent functional and postural behaviours were examined in relatively low-risk preterm infants. 44 infants were nursed in the supine position and 37 in a prone position throughout their admission period. Persistent head-turning to the right was observed more often and continued longer in the infants lying in supine. Asymmetrical postures, e.g. of skull and trunk, were more often seen in infants lying in supine than in prone. The prone position was thought to help prevent infantile scoliosis. At nine months, preference for the right hand was more marked in infants lying in supine, whereas infants lying in prone used their hands bilaterally, a tendency that persisted at 18 months. Asymmetrical gait pattern with mild gait disturbance was found more often in infants lying in supine than in prone. The prone position was thought to prevent asymmetrical posture and excessive functional asymmetries.
