Journal ArticleDOI

Neonatal pain, parenting stress and interaction, in relation to cognitive and motor development at 8 and 18 months in preterm infants

TL;DR: In general, greater overall exposure to intravenous morphine was associated with poorer motor development at 8 months, but not at 18 months CCA, however, specific protocols for morphine administration were not evaluated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Perinatal and neonatal predictors of developmental coordination disorder in very low birthweight children

TL;DR: Male sex and low birth weight were significant predictors of DCD, suggesting that these infants should be followed for detection of this common, but under-recognised disorder.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sensory Processing Patterns in Children Born Very Preterm.

TL;DR: Children born very preterm are at increased risk for sensory processing differences, which are associated with perinatal risk factors and length of stay in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU).
Journal ArticleDOI

Does the Movement Assessment Battery for Children-2 at 3 years of age predict developmental coordination disorder at 4.5 years of age in children born very preterm?

TL;DR: The MABC-2 is highly sensitive in identifying VPT children with DCD, but also has many false positives, and scores at age 3 were a significant predictor of DCD diagnosis at 4.5 years.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sensory processing and cortisol at age 4 years: Procedural pain-related stress in children born very preterm.

TL;DR: In a longitudinal prospective cohort study, N = 146 infants born 24-32 weeks gestational age were recruited from BC Women's Hospital, Vancouver, BC, Canada; neonatal factors were collected from daily chart review as discussed by the authors.
