Early multiprofessional stimulation in children with defensing in neuropsychomotor development: integrative review

Abstract

INTRODUCTION: Prematurity is recognized as a risk factor for motor development disorders, as it promotes interruption in the progression of the development of brain structures. OBJECTIVE: It consists of analyzing the process of early stimulation in children with impaired neuropsychomotor development up to 2 years of age corrected, through a multidisciplinary approach. METHODOLOGY: An integrative review developed from March to May 2018, using the databases LILACS, PUBMED, SCIELO and PEDro. Criteria for inclusion: an article available in full, published between 2009 and 2018, in English, Portuguese or Spanish, addressing early intervention, developmental disability, child development and motor skills, as the central theme. Articles that did not meet the pre-defined criteria and were not original articles were excluded. RESULTS: 45 articles with descriptors and temporal clipping were selected, 28 of which were selected for complete reading. Of these, 12 were eliminated because they did not meet the inclusion and exclusion criteria, and 16 articles were eligible for the study. Among some studies, it has been observed that the reception and care of these children and their families, besides the stimulation, are essential for greater functional gain in the first years of life. CONCLUSION: In the context of the prematurity to interdisciplinarity, considering the delay in these children are due not only to the lack of adequate stimuli, but to the non-development of neurological structures, early stimulation offers new experiences, promoting significant improvements and ensuring a better quality of life.
