Few follow-up studies of children with very low birth weight (VLBW, <1,500 g) have examined neuropsychological sequelae at later ages or neonatal risks as predictors of these outcomes. The present study assessed cognitive skills at mean age 16 years in 48 participants with <750 g birth weight, 47 with 750–1,499 g birth weight, and 52 term-born controls. Our major objectives were to delineate the long-term cognitive consequences of VLBW, and to determine if risks for periventricular brain insults accounted for variations in outcomes. Analysis revealed poorer outcomes for the <750 g group than for term-born controls on nearly all measures, with specific impairments in visual–motor skills, spatial memory, and executive function. Predictors of outcome for participants with VLBW included lower birth weight, lower weight for gestational age, and a longer period of oxygen requirement for chronic lung disease. The longer-term consequences of VLBW are consistent with expectations based on early brain pathology and suggest limitations to functional plasticity. (JINS, 2004,10, 987–1004.)

O objetivo deste trabalho foi analisar estudos que associam o baixo peso ao nascer e a proficiência motora em crianças com idade entre um e dez anos. A revisão sistemática da literatura foi realizada em base de dados eletrônica e lista de referência dos artigos publicados. Foram utilizados os seguintes descritores na língua inglesa: "infant low birth weight", "infant very low birth weight", "infant extremely low birth weight", "motor skills", "psychomotor performance", "child development", "human development", "growth & development", "growth" e "fetal development". A análise dos estudos envolveu leitura de títulos, resumos e textos completos. No total, 18 artigos foram lidos na íntegra; apenas dois estudos tiveram delineamento longitudinal; e os demais estudos eram transversais. As crianças avaliadas tinham idade entre 9 meses e 9 anos. Na avaliação do desenvolvimento motor, há ampla utilização de instrumentos já padronizados, que avaliam habilidades motoras grossas e finas de maneira quantitativa.Os resultados dos estudos apontam que crianças nascidas com peso abaixo de 2.500g apresentam algum tipo de deficit motor. As habilidades mais afetadas foram as habilidades motoras finas e o equilíbrio. O peso ao nascer é uma variável que deve ser considerada nos estudos sobre o desenvolvimento de habilidades motoras básicas das crianças.

Improving the quality of Human Resources (HR) through stimulation of growth and development in children aged under two years (0-24 months), needs to be a priority concern of parents / caregivers considering this period is called the "golden age" or golden period, because brain development is very fast at two year old baby / BADUTA. Low Birth Weight (LBW) infants are at risk of growth and development disorders if LBW treatment and stimulation of development are not optimal and continuous. The research objective was to determine the development of Baduta motor skills with a history of LBW in the Regency. Descriptive research with the Cross Sectional Study approach. The study population was all Baduta with a history of LBW in Mamuju District, Mamuju District. The sample of this study was Baduta who had a history of low birth weight birth and lived in Mamuju District. the number of samples is 28 million, using the KPSP Pre Srining Development Questionnaire (KPSP) measuring gross motor development and fine motor development. The results showed that there were still 11 baduta (39.3%) unable to do gross motor skills and 5 baduta (17.9%) unable to do fine motor skills
