Abstract

We evaluated the health indicators of premature infants in the first year of life depending on gestational age. We examined 94 premature infants of various gestational age (НВ) in the neonatal department of the Republican Scientific and Practical Center of Pediatrics who were monthly observed by the specialists as pediatrician, neurologist. We used the "Jurba-Mastyukova scale" to estimate the psychomotor development of premature infants during their first year of life. Premature infants were monitored up to the first year of life according to the corrected age. The study once again confirmed the dependence of the frequency of adverse neurological outcome on the severity of brain damage. The action of damaging factors on the immature brain determines a variety of combinations of motor and cognitive disorders, which serves as the basis of impairment of these functions.
