Different Intervention Models of Premature Infants Based on the ICF Biopsychosocial Model
Sponsor: Federal University of Health Science of Porto Alegre
Summary
Prematurity is an important risk factor for delayed neuropsychomotor development. The main objective of this study is to analyze the impact of different intervention models on the neuropsychomotor development of premature babies based on the ICF biopsychosocial model.

Orientations for families
Guidance for parents will follow the guide/manual prepared by the researchers, in addition to verbal and video guidance. Once a week a reminder will be sent, and once a month researchers will contact you by phone for guidance. There will be 3 evaluations with an interval of 4 months. (4 months; 8 months; 12 months) and more one avaliation with an interval of 12 months at 24 months.
Professional stimulation more orientations for families.
Each session will last approximately 50 minutes, where the stimuli will be performed in: supine position; Ventral Decubitus; Seated; Four supports, kneeling/semi-kneeling and standing. If the child no longer uses the posture or it is not an acquisition for the age group in which the baby is, the time will be distributed in order to contemplate the expected acquisitions for the age group in which the baby is. The stimuli will be performed based on the neuropsychomotor development, in order of progression and according to the corrected age of the baby. The frequency of consultations may vary due to the different degrees of prematurity, and the stipulated initial frequency will vary between 1-8 times a month. The orientations will also be provided to family members during consultations, and families will also perform stimuli at home according to written, verbal and video guidance. There will be 3 evaluations with an interval of 4 months. (4 months; 8 months; 12 months).
