Desenvolvimento cognitivo e de linguagem expressiva em um par de gêmeos dizigóticos: influência da síndrome de Down e da prematuridade associada ao muito baixo peso

Abstract: O objetivo deste estudo foi descrever o desenvolvimento cognitivo e de linguagem expressiva de uma criança com síndrome de Down (SD) e seu gemelar, ambos nascidos pré-termo muito baixo peso (PTMBP), observando a influência da SD e da prematuridade associada ao muito baixo peso no processo de desenvolvimento durante o período sensório-motor. Participaram deste estudo um par de gêmeos dizigóticos, ambos do sexo masculino, nascidos PTMBP, sendo que apenas um apresentava SD. A idade inicial dos sujeitos foi de set… Show more

“…Many studies and discussions show that low birth weight is a risk factor for development, and it is one of the most important determinants of neonatal, perinatal, and child mortality. Studies about child development have related gestational age to weight at birth as predictive factor for the outcomes in the first years of life (4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10) . Besides, we should consider its implications on language acquisition (8,(11)(12)(13)(14) , because children who live with biological risks in the early years of life are more prone to developing problems that may affect their development.…”

“…The twins S1/S2 had greater complications when compared to the S2/S3, what indicates a bigger delay in the neuropsychomotor development, besides of the presence of the first words in lower age. The intercurrences happening during the childbirth and the first infancy are frequent in twins and are considered risk factors to the child development 5,6 . Prematurity and low weight at birth are some of the biological risk factors which influence the child development 11 .…”

“…Children who live surrounded by biological and psychic risks in their first years of life are more likely to developing problems which can affect their development 11 . Furthermore, studies 6,18 indicate prematurity as having a predictive value for delay in the motor and cognitive development. Although the two pairs of twins were born premature, S1/S2 were extreme premature (being born in the 27 th gestation week).…”

“…but many of these children show a delay in oral language acquisition as an effective form of communication. In twin children, complications occurring during childbirth and early childhood are considered as risk factors for child development 13 . Thus, they may later develop cognitive, linguistic or behavioral changes and cannot completely exclude later adverse neurological outcomes 14,15 .…”
