Abstract 【Abstract】 Objective To determine the effect of early rehabilitation on adverseneuro developmental outcomes in preterm infants with certain risk factors.Method This was a retrospective study. 2374 preterm
infants were chosen from our hospital's follow up system in 2004-2012,1027 of whom were eliminated because
they only followed up once.The remaining 654 premature infants were divided into two group saccording to whether accepting early intervention.The outcome of neurodevelopment was confirmed by Gesell scores. The
effect of early rehabilitation on the neurodevelopmental outcome of preterm infants with certain risk factors was
determined by two independent sample t-tests. A P < 0.05 was considered statistically significant. Result The
DQ value of the early rehabilitation group was significantly higher than the non-early rehabilitation group for
all five aspects of the Gesell score including Adaptive,Gross motor,Fine motor,Language and Personal social
(P < 0.01).Conclusion A positive effect of early rehabilitation was identified, which suggests an approach for
improving neurodevelopmental outcomes,even reduce the incidence of cerebral palsy of preterm infants with
these risk factors.
