Abstract
- Aim: To clarify the relationship between early infantile spontaneous movement of very-low-birth-weight infants (VLBWIs) and sensory characteristics in childhood.<br />Study Design: Prospective cohort study. We investigated the association between the Motor Optimality Score-Revised (MOS-R), a detailed assessment of general movements (GMs) at the corrected age of 9-17 weeks and the Infant/Toddler Sensory Profile Japanese version (ITSP-J) at the corrected age of 3 years. A multiple regression analysis was performed to examine the correlation of ITSP-J and MOS-R with patient clinical background factors.<br />Subjects: Fifty-three VLBWIs (median gestational age: 28 weeks, 6 days; median birth weight: 997 g) who were managed at the NICU of Oita University from September 2013 to June 2019.<br />Results: A multiple regression analysis revealed that the ITSP-J subscale in the sensory section of visual score was significantly correlated with the age-adequate movement repertoire subscore of MOS-R, and in the sensory section of vestibular score was correlated with the fidgety subscore of MOS-R. For both visual and vestibular section scores, intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) showed an independent association with the MOS-R subscore.<br />Conclusion: Spontaneous movement characteristics in early infancy were associated with sensory characteristics in early childhood.<br />Competing Interests: Declaration of competing interest The authors declare that they have no known competing financial interests or personal relationships that could have appeared to influence the work reported in this paper.<br /> (Copyright © 2023 The Japanese Society of Child Neurology.
