“…The age range of the analyzed children was within the representation or preoperational period -symbolic phase -characterized from 2 to 7 years of age, which is the stage when the child starts to develop the capacity to imitate and create elaborate games and symbols (20)(21)(22) . The cognitive abilities that have shown to be statistically significant were the ability to grasp and handle objects and construction and object permanence.…”

Purpose: To correlate aspects of cognitive and language development in preterm infants of 24 and 42 months of chronological age. Methods: A quantitative, analytical, and cross-sectional study was conducted between February and December 2012. The sample comprised ten preterm infants with a chronological age ranging between 24 and 42 months. These children were subjected to the Bayley Scales of Infant Development -III and evaluated according to cognitive, receptive, and expressive language subscales. Results: A statistical significance was observed when correlating chronological and corrected age with the age of cognitive and language development. In the correlation of chronological age with cognitive and language abilities, a statistical significance was observed regarding the ability to grasp and handle objects, and in the construction and object permanence capacity. In the correlation of developmental age with cognition and language abilities, a statistical significance was observed in all cognitive abilities. A significant correlation was not observed between ages of expressive language development and receptive language ability. Conclusion: A correlation between chronological and corrected ages with the ages of cognitive and language development was confirmed. Receptive and expressive language abilities showed a distinct development; however, they were dependent on the cognition. As crianças foram submetidas à aplicação da Escala de DesenvolvimentoInfantil de Bayley -III e avaliadas mediante as subescalas de cognição, linguagem receptiva e expressiva. Resultados: Observou-se significân-cia estatística na correlação das idades cronológica e corrigida com as idades do desenvolvimento cognitivo e de linguagem. Na correlação da idade cronológica com as habilidades cognitiva e de linguagem, houve significância estatística quanto à capacidade de apreensão e manipulação de objetos e na construção e habilidade de permanência dos objetos. Na correlação da idade do desenvolvimento com as habilidades de cognição e linguagem, constatou-se significância estatística em todas as habilidades cognitivas. Não houve correlação significativa entre idade do desenvolvimento de linguagem expressiva e habilidades de linguagem receptiva. Conclusão: Confirmou-se correlação das idades cronológica e corrigida com a idade do desenvolvimento cognitivo e de linguagem.As habilidades de linguagem receptiva e expressiva mostraram-se com desenvolvimento distinto, todavia, dependentes da cognição.

“…The most frequent problem at this age, however, is retarded cognitive development, detected in 30-40% of these children by low scores in mental and psychomotor development tests. 4,51,60 For premature children born with gestational ages less than or equal to 25 weeks, the frequency of severe neurosensory and cognitive development disorders reaches almost 50%. 35 Low development scores at the start of life can have implications for children s performance at school age, although their predictive value for future development is controversial since cognitive development is influenced by multiple factors, with environmental factors being of especial importance the influence of which accentuates as the child s age increases and, in the absence of severe neurological sequelae, can overcome the effects of the biological factors.…”

“…EP children have more ill health than term children over the first few years of life in most areas, but particularly in upper and lower respiratory illnesses [12,16] , and particularly in those who had BPD [12,[17][18][19] . Asthma is more prevalent in children who were very tiny or preterm infants at birth compared with those not born preterm or very tiny in some [20,21] , but this was not found in all studies [15,22] .…”

The long-term consequences of extreme prematurity assume more importance as survival rates increase. Pulmonary problems are common immediately after birth and most extremely preterm (EP) infants (<28 weeks’ gestation) require respiratory support. Many survivors develop bronchopulmonary dysplasia and some have long-term oxygen dependency, occasionally for years. Their brain has to respond to an environment very different to that of the uterus, and cerebroventricular haemorrhage and white matter injury occur much more frequently than in term infants. Compared with children born at term, EP survivors have higher rates of wheezing and hospital readmission for respiratory illnesses in the first few years after the primary hospitalisation. As they grow older they have reduced pulmonary function, particularly airway obstruction, and lower exercise tolerance. Larger proportions of EP children have significant developmental and motor delay in early childhood. At school age other cognitive impairments including learning disabilities and behavioural problems occur more frequently. Despite these difficulties, most EP survivors escape without major long-term pulmonary or neurological problems.
