Investigation of the Relationship Between Development, Neurological Assessment and Object Permanence in High Risk Infants.

September 11, 2023 updated by: Erkan Erol, Tokat Gaziosmanpasa University
The aim of the study is to examine the relationship between development, neurological assessment and object permanence in risky infants aged 7-16 months. The sample of the study will consist of babies between 7-16 months at risk (preterm, low birth weight, asphyxia, hyperbillirubinemia, etc.). Inclusion criteria for the study: Between 7-16 months, having at least one risk factor. Exclusion criteria: Medical complications (eg, severe visual impairment) limiting participation in assessments; autism, down syndrome, or spinal cord injury; diagnosed uncontrolled seizure disorder; or a neurodegenerative disorder. Parents who agreed to participate in the study will be asked to fill out the demographic information questionnaire. Object permanence scale, Bayley III infant and toddler development scale and Hammersmith infant neurologic assessment will be applied to infants.

Primary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Measure Description
Time Frame
Object Permanence Scale
Time Frame: Baseline
The minimum score of the Object Permanence Scale is 0, and the maximum score is 10. Higher scores indicate better outcome.
Baseline
The Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development, Third Edition (Bayley-III) motor and cognitive subscales
Time Frame: Baseline
Cognitive subscale consists of 91 items and Motor subscale consists of 138 items. Items are scored as 1 (done) and 0 not able to). Higher scores indicate better outcome.
Baseline
Hammersmith infant neurological assessment
Time Frame: Baseline
Each item is individually scored from zero to three, and individual scores are summed to obtain a global optimality score. The overall score can range from a minimum of 0 to a maximum of 78 points.
