Abstract
Achievements of perinatal medicine and a higher survival rate of children born with extremely low weight require an improvement in the dynamic observation of this category of children at an early age.
Purpose. This study aimed at studying the health status of young children with disabilities caused by diseases of the nervous system, born weighing less than 1500 grams, with an analysis of morbidity, physical development, emotional status, and autonomic regulation.
Results and conclusion. A clinical and functional study of 74 children born with a body weight of less than 1500 grams made enabled the authors to identify the peculiarities of their health and physical development in the first year of life, to identify risk factors, and to develop a method for predicting the formation of cerebral palsy by one year of life in these children. Consequently, pediatricians and neurologists will be able to timely carry out preventive measures for children from a high-risk group.
