Chen, Chao-Ying; Lo, Warren D.; Heathcock, Jill C. – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2013
Upper extremity movements, midline behaviors, fine, and gross motor skills are frequently impaired in hemiparesis and cerebral palsy. We investigated midline toy exploration and fine and gross motor skills in infants at risk for hemiplegic cerebral palsy. Eight infants with neonatal stroke (NS) and thirteen infants with typical development (TD)…

Lobo, Michele A.; Galloway, James C. – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2013
Infants born preterm have increased risk for learning disabilities yet we lack assessments to successfully detect these disabilities in early life. We followed 23 full-term and 29 preterm infants from birth through 24 months to assess for differences in and stability of learning abilities across time. Measures included the Bayley-III cognitive…

Greene, Michelle M.; Patra, Kousiki; Nelson, Michael N.; Silvestri, Jean M. – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2012
This study investigates the Third Edition of the Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development (Bayley-III) and: (1) early patterns of neurodevelopmental performance among preterm infants 8-12 months of age; and (2) correlations between known risk factors and neurodevelopmental outcome of preterm infants in this cohort. Mean Language Index (LI;…

Janssen, Anjo J. W. M.; Akkermans, Reinier P.; Steiner, Katerina; de Haes, Olga A. M.; Oostendorp, Rob A. B.; Kollee, Louis A. A.; Nijhuis-van der Sanden, Maria W. G. – Research in Developmental Disabilities: A Multidisciplinary Journal, 2011
Preterm birth increases the risk for neurologic and developmental disabilities and therefore long-term follow-up is important. This prospective follow-up study aims to describe longitudinal motor performance in preterm infants from 6 to 24 months and to detect the influence of risk factors on motor performance trajectories. We included preterm…
