Official title: The Effect Of Risk Factors Considered Together With Preterm Birth History On Sensory and Motor Development in Preschool Children

This thesis was planned to examine the effects of risk factors seen with a history of preterm birth on sensory and motor development in preschool children. A total of 48 children, 24 with only a history of preterm birth and 24 with additional risk factors for preterm birth, were included in the study.

Read the detailed description

This thesis was planned to examine the effects of risk factors seen with a history of preterm birth on sensory and motor development in preschool children. A total of 48 children, 24 with only a history of preterm birth and 24 with additional risk factors for preterm birth, were included in the study. Additional risk factors, including respiratory distress syndrome, intraventricular bleeding, periventricular leukomalacia, necrotizing enterocolitis, retinopathy of prematurity, and bronchopulmonary dysplasia, which are common in preterm infants, were recorded. Peabody Motor Development Scale-2 was used to evaluate motor development performances and Dunn Sensory Profile was used to evaluate sensory processing.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Motor development

    Peabody Motor Development Scale-2 was first developed in 1983 by Rhonda Folio and Rebecca Fewell. A second edition was published by the same authors in 2000. Offering separate tests and rating scales for both gross and fine motor skills, it is a frequently preferred tool for assessing the motor development of young children from birth to 72 months. The duration of the test is 45-60 minutes. Gross and fine motor assessments can be done on the same day or at different times. It is important to know the age of the child before starting the assessment and corrected age up to 2 years of age is used in preterm children. Each item is evaluated according to a 3-point (0,1,2) scoring scale. The therapist asks the child to do a certain item and observes how the child does the activity. Items are scored as 2, 1, or 0. Higher scores perform better.

    Measured: 0-72 months

  2. Sensory development

    The Dunn sensory profile is a questionnaire filled out by a parent or primary caregiver that assesses children's reactions to events and sensory situations they encounter in daily life. The Dunn Sensory profile is suitable for assessing sensory development in children aged 3-10 years. The questionnaire consists of 125 items and the parent evaluates the event defined in each item according to the child's situation. For each of the 125 items, the parent was asked to respond on a five-point Likert scale of 1 = always, 2 = often, 3 = sometimes, 4 = rarely, and 5 = never. Higher scores perform better.

    Measured: 3-10 years

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Sensory development

    Infant/toddler sensory profile (Dunn sensory profile 7-36) is a parent or caregiver questionnaire that evaluates the responses of children up to 3 years of age to sensory inputs. It was revised and updated as Dunn sensory profile II in 2014. BYDP has forms that evaluate two different age groups, 0-6 months and 7-36 months. It has items in six different sections: general, visual, auditory, vestibular, tactile, and oral. Parents evaluate their child's response to sensory stimuli on a 5-point Likert scale. 'Almost never' five; 'almost always' is rated as one. A higher score indicates that the behavior is observed less frequently. In addition to the total score, the items of the test provide score formation in four quadrants: low registration, sensory sensitivity, sensory avoidance, and sensory seeking.

    Measured: 7-36 month

Who may be eligible to take part?

The sponsor lists 4 inclusion and 2 exclusion criteria. Eligibility is decided by the study team after screening, so read the full criteria and contact a listed site.

Is this clinical trial currently recruiting?

The record says: finished, as of the sponsor's last update on 21 Oct 2021. Status can change between updates, so confirm with the study contact before making plans.

Where is the study taking place?

The record lists 1 site in Turkey (Türkiye). Whether a site is taking part right now should be confirmed with that site. See every site.

What are the possible benefits and risks?

They depend on the study and the treatment, and no study can promise a benefit. The study team explains the known risks during informed consent, before anyone joins; the record itself does not list them.

Are results available for this study?

The study is completed, but results are not available in the source record. That does not mean the treatment did or did not work.

How can a doctor refer a patient or contact the research team?

The record lists no contact. The official record names the sponsor, who can be asked directly. AzTrials does not enrol participants or take referrals.

What does the primary outcome measure?

Motor development (time frame: 0-72 months). The study lists 2 primary outcomes in all. It is what the study was designed to measure, not a finding.

Where can I read the original study information?

On the ClinicalTrials.gov record for NCT05087511, which also lists 5 linked publications.

Does a listing mean the treatment is approved or proven to work?

No. A listing means the study is registered. It does not show that the treatment is safe, works, or is approved by a regulator.

How often is this information updated?

AzTrials copies changed records from ClinicalTrials.gov every night and reloads the whole registry every week. The sponsor last updated this record on 21 Oct 2021.
