Features of the neurological status and neuropsychiatric development (NPD) in children at the age of 6 month of life born with fetus growth delay (G 1) in comparison with children born without fetus growth delay (G 2) are revealed in the article. Attention group was composed of 13 (22.41%) of children G 1. NPD delay was reported in 15.69% of children in G 1 and in 20.51% of children in G 2 at the age of 3 month of life. Thus, 13.73% of G 1 children (17.59% of G 2 children) were included in the attention group while 1.96% of G 1 children (2.56% of G 2 children) composed the control group. By the end of the first six months of life proper NPD was observed in the same percentage of cases (33.33% in G 1). Lower harmonious development dominated in all cases, but non-harmonious NRD was observed in children of G 2 born with fetus growth delay. Attention group was composed of 58.82% of G 1 children, risk group – of 5.88% and dispensary group – of 1.96%. Changes in the following lines of development were registered: general movement, active speech, skills and social behavior.

Aim. To evaluate some health aspects of children born with different types of intrauterine growth restriction during the early neonatal period.Methods. Clinical and anamnestic, physical, laboratory, electrophysiological, ultrasound and statistical methods were used. Children’s past medical history, development during early neonatal period, physical development, functioning of autonomic nervous system and cardiovascular system were assessed.Results. It was revealed that development of different types of intrauterine growth restriction is related to father and mother’s age at the time of pregnancy, women’s body mass before pregnancy, and time of pregnancy complication development (abortion risk, pre-eclampsia, arterial hypertension, Rh-immunization, edema). Fetuses with asymmetric type of intrauterine growth retardation had survived hypoxia more often (by 4.87 times). Children with symmetrical type of intrauterine growth retardation were more often born by C-section (by 2.66 times), with smaller anthropometric measurements, with more frequent and severe hypotrophy, moderate and severe cerebral ischemia and mild intracranial hemorrhage, cryptorchidism, kidney diseases, atrial septal defects, muscular ventricular septal defects, open arterial duct, and depleted reserves. Children with asymmetric type of intrauterine growth retardation more often had hypoglycemia, jaundice, polycythemia, restricted adaptation reserves, myocardial metabolic disorders, anterior mitral valve leaflet prolapse, posthypoxic changes similar to hypertrophic cardiopathy.Conclusion. Revealed features of past medical history, development during early neonatal period of life, physical development, functioning of autonomic nervous system and cardiovascular system in different types of children’s intrauterine growth restriction can promote formulation of criteria for early diagnosis of adaptive and reserve disorders and identification of dispensary groups.
