These impairments hinder their ability to engage in social interactions and explore their surroundings. However, personalized and continuous sensory stimulation, particularly within the home environment, may play a crucial role in supporting motor and visual development in these children. Therefore, this study aimed to explore the relationship between sensory stimulation in the home environment and the motor and visual development of children with CZS.&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Method&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;This cross-sectional study included children with CZS. The Affordances in the Home Environment for Motor Development (AHEMD) instrument was administered to caregivers to assess motor stimulation opportunities at home. All children underwent neurodevelopmental milestone assessments using the Brazilian Portuguese version of the Bayley Scales of Infant Development-Third Edition (BSID-III). Gross motor function was further assessed with the Gross Motor Function Measure (GMFM), and functional vision was evaluated by using the functional vision developmental milestones test (FVDMT).&lt;/p&gt;\u0000 &lt;/section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;section&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;h3&gt; Results&lt;/h3&gt;\u0000 \u0000 &lt;p&gt;Eighty-five children with a mean age of 39.9 ± 2.3 (24.0–42.0) months were included. Forty-one children (48.2%) lived in homes with ‘very weak’ environmental stimulation. The children showed profound developmental delays in all domains of the BSID-III with an average neurodevelopmental age of 39.9 ± 2.3 (24–42) months. On the GMFM, over 90.0% of children could not initiate or maintain the required movements and postures for sitting, crawling, standing, walking, running and jumping. A significant positive correlation was found between the variety of home sensory stimulation with the AHEMD and the scores at the BSID-III motor scales as well as the GMFM.

Given that mental health prevention and promotion practices can be integrated into the roles of all healthcare providers, possessing insight into the most suitable evidence-based interventions can elevate the quality of care delivered.</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 </div>","PeriodicalId":55262,"journal":{"name":"Child Care Health and Development","volume":"51 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":1.8,"publicationDate":"2024-12-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142764085","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Developmental levels of cognitive, language and motor scales were confirmed using Bayley-III and analysed by dividing the infants according to gestational age as follows: high-risk full-term, moderate-to-late preterm and very preterm. Collected data were analysed using descriptive statistics, frequency analysis, analysis of variance and chi-squared tests using SPSS version 24.0 (IBM Corp., Armonk, NY, USA).</p>\u0000 </section>\u0000 \u0000 <section>\u0000 \u0000 <h3> Results</h3>\u0000 \u0000 <p>In terms of developmental characteristics according to gestational age, moderate-to-late preterm infants exhibited average levels in all cognitive, language and motor domains, while high-risk full-term infants and very preterm infants exhibited low average levels in all cognitive, language and motor domains.
