Infants With Primary Congenital Hypothyroidism and Development
Sponsor: Nigde Omer Halisdemir University
Summary
A review of the literature has focused primarily on the cognitive and motor development of children with congenital hypothyroidism, but no studies on sensory processing skills have been found. Considering the age range of the groups studied, studies conducted in the early stages of life are rare. This planned study aims to examine the neurological status, motor development, and sensory processing skills of infants aged 6-18 months, considering early synaptogenesis.

Conditions
Interventions
neurological status
The Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination (HINE) was planned to be used to assess the neurological status of infants. The HIND is a standardized examination for children aged 3 to 24 months, with high predictive value in the early detection of neurological disorders.
sensory processing functions
The Test of Sensory Function in Infants (TSFI) was planned to be used to assess infant sensory development. The TSFI is frequently used to assess the sensory processing functions of infants aged 4-18
Motor development
The Peabody Developmental Motor Scales-2 (PDMS-2) was planned to be used to assess motor development. The test is designed to identify developmental delays in children aged 0-72 months.
