Sleep Characteristics in Late Premature Infants

NCT06880588 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 81

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Studies examining sleep and developmental parameters in infants have primarily focused on either term or extremely preterm infants. However, a review of the existing literature reveals a lack of research investigating sleep characteristics and their relationship with motor and sensory development in late preterm infants. Therefore, the present study aims to evaluate sleep characteristics and explore their association with motor development and sensory processing in late preterm infants, who are at higher risk for developmental delays compared to term infants.

Conditions

  • Late Preterm Infant
  • Motor Development
  • Sleep

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Brief Infant Sleep Questionnaire

The Brief Infant Sleep Questionnaire will be used to assess sleep. Infant sleep problems are among the most common problems presented to healthcare professionals. The extended version of the "Brief Infant Sleep Questionnaire" is a questionnaire developed by Sadeh to assess sleep problems and their causes in early childhood. This questionnaire has been translated into Turkish and assessed sleep environment and sleep problems in infants. It consists of 33 items, is based on parent reports of infant or toddler sleep patterns and is used to validate the data. It is associated with daily records and parent reports of sleep. Its sensitivity in documenting developmental sleep trends is well established

BEHAVIORAL

Test of Sensory Function in Infants

It was planned to use the Test of Sensory Function in Infants to evaluate the sensory development of infants. Test of Sensory Function in Infants is frequently used to evaluate the sensory processing

BEHAVIORAL

Peabody Motor Development Scale-2

It was planned to use the Peabody Motor Development Scale-2 to evaluate motor development. The Peabody Motor Development Scale-2 was designed to determine developmental delays in children aged 0-72 months.
