“…Additionally, multimodal stimulation techniques provide sensory input to promote sensory processing and motor integration, fostering a conducive environment for developmental progress. It's essential to recognize the importance of early intervention in mitigating the impact of DDs associated with CHD [ 22 , 23 ]. Early identification of delays and prompt initiation of physiotherapy interventions can significantly improve outcomes and enhance the overall quality of life for these children.…”

Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are one of the most prevalent anomalies present at birth globally. Children with CHD often face developmental challenges, including motor, language, and cognitive impairments. This case report presents the clinical profile of a 1.2-year-old female child with CHD and developmental delay (DD) post-CHD surgery. The child exhibited delayed gross motor, fine motor, language, and personal-social milestones, along with significant cardiac anomalies observed on CT angiograms. Physiotherapy interventions were initiated to address these DDs, encompassing manual techniques, neurodevelopmental treatment, and multimodal stimulation. The objective of this study was to assess the impact of physiotherapy interventions on improving developmental outcomes in infants with CHD-associated DD. The New Ballard Score and Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination were utilized to evaluate improvements post-intervention. Significant enhancements in developmental outcomes were observed. This case underscores the significance of holistic care approaches in mitigating the impact of CHD on developmental trajectories and improving the quality of life for affected children.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the relationship between thyroid hormone levels and clinical outcomes in preterm, small for gestational age (SGA) infants. Materials and Methods: The premature newborns (gestational age of ≤30 weeks) were divided into two groups as SGA and non-SGA. Thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) and free thyroxine (fT4) levels, the frequency of congenital hypothyroidism (CH), demographic and clinical characteristics, morbidity and mortality rate were compared between the groups. Results: A total of 430 premature newborns, 72 in the SGA group and 358 in the non-SGA group were included. The frequency of CH, morbidity, demographic and clinical characteristics were similar between two groups. The mortality rate was higher in SGA (36.1%) than in non-SGA group (13.6%). Serum fT4 level was lower in SGA group (1.04±0.30 ng/dl) compared to the non-SGA group (1.24±0.33 ng/dl). The serum TSH level was higher in SGA group (9.91 ± 5.6 uIU/L) than in non-SGA group (6.6 ± 5.2 uIU/L). Conclusion: The frequency of thyroid dysfunction was higher in preterm SGA infants compared to non-SGA, which was due to transiently high TSH and low fT4 concentrations. Therefore, thyroid function tests should be monitored periodically in preterm and SGA infants.
