Beschrijving
Inclusion Criteria:
- Adequate weight infants: healthy infants born with gestational age between 38-42 weeks and adequate birth weight (> 2500 grams);
- Low weight infants: healthy infants born with gestational age between 32-36 weeks and 6 days and with low birth weight (between 1500 and 2500 grams).
Exclusion Criteria:
- Anoxiated infants;
- Signs of neurological impairment (eg, hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathies grade I, II and III, intracranial hemorrhage and neonatal seizures);
- Congenital malformations (eg myelomeningocele and achondroplasias);
- Syndromes (e.g Down Syndrome);
- Sensorial alterations (visual and auditory);
- Cardiorespiratory difficulties;
- Orthopedic impairments (e.g, congenital clubfoot);
- Apgar below 8 and 10 in the first and fifth minutes, respectively.
- Infants who do not attend any of the evaluations, who do not complete at least 80% of the training or who cry uncontrollably, not allowing at least 10 reachings in the evaluations and training. Those that present intercurrences that may compromise normal neurosensorimotor development (for example, recurrent pneumonia, kidney and intestinal infection).

Experimenteel: Training with additional weight
The infants will be submitted to a reaching behavior training program of 4 weeks, two times per week (totaling 8 sessions).
During this training program, infants will use a bracelet with an additional weight characterized by 20% of the total mass of the upper limb placed on both wrists.
This training will be adopted for the adequate weight intervention group and low weight intervention group.
|
The infants will be positioned in a reclined position.
A bracelet with an additional weight (20% of the total mass of the upper limb) will be placed on both wrists.
The training will happen 2x/week, during 4 weeks (8 sessions).
An object will be used to stimulate the reaching behavior, which will be displayed by the examiner (positioned in front of the infant), and presented in the midline at shoulder height, considering the distance from the arm's length of the infant to the height of the wrist.
The physiotherapist will draw the attention of the infant to the object, moving it momentarily so that the infant perceives it and reaches it.
After reaching, the object will be carefully removed and resubmitted in order to elicit a new movement.
The interval between each presentation will be of approximately 5 seconds.
At least 10 movements will be stimulated.
If the infant does not achieve the 10 reaches within the maximum interval of 15 minutes, the session will be terminated.

Placebo-vergelijker: Training without additional weight
The infants will be submitted to a reaching behavior training program of 4 weeks, two times per week (totaling 8 sessions).
During this training program, infants will use a bracelet without additional weight, placed on both wrists.
This training will be adopted for the adequate weight placebo group and low weight placebo group.

The infants will be positioned in a reclined position.
A bracelet without the additional weight will be placed on both wrists.
The training will happen 2x/week, during 4 weeks (8 sessions).
An object will be used to stimulate the reaching behavior, which will be displayed by the examiner (positioned in front of the infant), and presented in the midline at shoulder height, considering the distance from the arm's length of the infant to the height of the wrist.
The physiotherapist will draw the attention of the infant to the object, moving it momentarily so that the infant perceives it and reaches the object.
After reaching, the object will be carefully removed (or picked up) and resubmitted in order to elicit a new movement.
The interval between each presentation of the object will be of approximately 5 seconds.
At least 10 movements will be stimulated.
If the infant does not achieve the 10 reaches within the maximum interval of 15 minutes, the session will be terminated.

Straightness Index
Tijdsspanne: Change from Pre-Intervention (baseline) compared to Post-Intervention (4 weeks) and Follow-up (7 days)
|
ratio between the minimal distance that could have been traveled in this trajectory (distance between the initial position of the hand and the object) and the distance traveled by the hand (total trajectory).
The closer is this index to 1, the straighter is the trajectory.

Grasping
Tijdsspanne: Change from Pre-Intervention (baseline) compared to Post-Intervention (4 weeks) and Follow-up (7 days)
|
categorical variable classified into (a) successful: when the infant was able to grasp the object with one or both hands; and (b) unsuccessful: when the infant touched the object, but did not grasp it
