A Comparitive Study of Early Intervention Programme vs Home Intervention Programme in Preterm Infants.
Background: Prematurity as defined by the World Health Organization (WHO) is a baby born before 37 weeks of gestation counting from the first day of the last menstrual period. Infants born at early gestational ages (<32 weeks), when compared with later ages (32-36) weeks scored lower on tests of gro...

Infants born at early gestational ages (<32 weeks), when compared with later ages (32-36) weeks scored lower on tests of gross motor development. So mild abnormalities detected in first few months would improve with early intervention programme. Methods: The preterm infants born before 37 gestational weeks and having APGAR score above 7 (after 5 minutes) were randomly selected and divided into two groups (N=15). Early developmental intervention programme was given to one group and home intervention programme was given to other group (control group). The outcome measure was Gross Motor Function Measure. Results: According to the need of the study unpaired t-test was applied and significant improvement was seen. Conclusion: Greater improvement in motor performance of preterm infants who received the early intervention programme when compared with home intervention was revealed. pubtype: Academic Journal doctype: research tables/charts randomized controlled trial Journal Article ougenre: Article language: English refInfo: holdings: @attributes: islocal: N |
