A First-Year Follow-Up of High-Risk Infants: Formulating a Cumulative Risk Index

Abstract: Multiple developmental assessments were made at 4-month intervals over the first year of life for 2 groups of infants born at risk and 1 normal group. The groups included 46 preterm respiratory distress syndrome infants, 46 postterm postmaturity syndrome, and 59 term normal infants. The mothers were white, multiparous, middle-class, high school graduates averaging 25 years of age. Analyses of group differences revealed that the preterm respiratory distress syndrome (RDS) infants continued to exhibit delays in … Show more

“…The NBAS is the most widely employed neonatal assessment scale and has been used extensively to study risk factors, 19,20 the effects of obstetric medication and mode of delivery, 21,22 maternal substance abuse, [23][24][25] cross cultural effects 26 and as a predictor of later development. [27][28][29] The NBAS is also related to concurrent and later measures of temperament in infancy and early childhood. 28,[30][31][32] The heritability of the NBAS-defined clusters has not to our knowledge been directly examined in twin studies.…”

“…[27][28][29] The NBAS is also related to concurrent and later measures of temperament in infancy and early childhood. 28,[30][31][32] The heritability of the NBAS-defined clusters has not to our knowledge been directly examined in twin studies. However, the role of genes in determining infant temperament at a somewhat later developmental age has been studied using other testing instruments that measure related behavioral clusters similar to those assessed by the NBAS.…”

“…A literatura referente ao estudo retrospectivo e de seguimento do desenvolvimento destas crianças vêm se atendo à pesquisa das capacidades motoras gerais e especiais [1][2][3][4] , ao processo cognitivo e de linguagem oral [5][6][7] , buscando uma associação dos fatores de risco médico e eventuais distúrbios desenvolvimentais nas referidas áreas. Alguns trabalhos têm apontado que mesmo em crianças com complicações neurológicas perinatais graves, comumente associadas a prejuízos cognitivos, seus desempenhos futuros serão influenciados por fatores de ordem não-biológica 8,9 .…”

“…Yet these differences do not necessarily imply develop mental deficiencies. Mothers arc often able to adapt and compensate for these differences in infants [34], Many studies on the develop mental outcome during the first 2 years of life reveal that risk infants at birth can develop secure attachments to their parents in infancy [10,23,[34][35][36], Less positive developmental outcomes are also reported. The incidence of sudden infant death syndrome is six times greater among high-risk preterm babies [37,38].…”

“…Thus, the importance of the characteristics of the environment and their mediating effect are becoming increasingly apparent. 35 There seems to be a great need for longitu dinal studies with repeated observations in naturalistic settings, focusing on the total caregiving environment of the child, and for a better understanding of the relationship be tween maternal schizophrenia and develop mental outcome.…”
