The effect of specific training of short duration on proximal and distal adjustments at the onset of reaching, in preterm and low birth weight infants: A randomized clinical trial
Abstract:This study aimed to verify the effect of specific training of short duration on the proximal (uni-and bimanual) and distal (aperture, orientation and the contact surface of the hand) adjustments of reaching, in the period of emergence in preterm infants and with low birth weight. The study included 18 infants of both sexes, born between 29-33 weeks gestational age, weighing less than 2500 grams, and who required peri- and postnatal hospital care. The infants were divided into two groups: experimental and contr… Show more
