Class Define prematurity. What factors predict the survival of premature infants How can prematurity be treated? What factors affect disability in the survivors? What types of disability and other outcomes are
likely in survivors? How are mortality and morbidity rates of premature infants changing? If a baby is born 8 weeks premature, how long after birth would you conduct a 52 week assessment,
after correcting for prematurity? How do socioeconomic status (maternal education) and prematurity to influence developmental
outcome? What is the impact of variables such as maternal sensitivity on outcome – on which infants do they
have the greatest impact? What interventions might improve the outcomes of premature infants (Kangaroo care, other types
of physical contact) – please describe. How do you think public health policy should be structured to prevent negative developmental
outcomes? What are the Fetal Origins of Adult Disease?

Infant mortality rate (Ascending)
The rate in the United States is 5.98, and there are 48 countries with lower rates, although many of those use a less stringent definition of mortality than the US

Predicting prematurity
Definition: 37 weeks gestational age or less Associated with low birthweight, > 2,500 g Incidence is linked to social risk and ethnicity
– socioeconomic status– Ethnicity
Norway 3 per 1,000 Caucasian American 5.5 per 1,000 African American 13.5 per 1,000

Premature infants differ
in degree of prematurity,
in related medical problems,
and social risks

More premature - reduced survival (survival rates increase over historical time)
Weeks Gestation Survival
21 weeks 0%
22 weeks 0-10%*
23 weeks 10-35%
24 weeks 40-70%
25 weeks 50-80%
26 weeks 80-90%
27 weeks >90%
30 weeks >95%
34 weeks >98%
A baby's chances for survival increases 3-4% per day between 23 and 24 weeks of gestation and about 2-3% per day between 24 and 26 weeks of gestation. After 26 weeks the rate of survival increases at a much slower rate because survival is high already.

At a given age/weight
Male infants are slightly less mature and have a slightly higher risk of dying than female infants.
African-American babies have a slightly better survival than Caucasian– most other groups are intermediate between the
two

Messinger
Significant disability
Moderate or severe mental retardation, inability to walk without assistance, blindness or deafness
More extreme prematurity is associated with greater risk of these conditions. At 23-24 weeks of gestation, risk is about 50%.
As gestational age increases, the risk of significant disability declines dramatically.

More developmental problems as birth weight decreases ELBW infants are more likely than higher birth weight infants to
demonstrate mild (<85) to significant (<70) delays on the Mental Scales (MDI) and Psychomotor Scales (PDI) of the Bayley Scales (BSID-II)
– 66% and 57% of ELBW children scored below the normative range on the MDI and PDI, respectively, at 18 to 22 months corrected age
Shankaran, 2004; 5 Vohr, B.R. 2000; 6 Vohr, B.R. 2005; 3 Walsh, M.C. 2005 Poor performance on these measures may reflect early
deficits in behavior regulation among ELBW infants including difficulty adapting to change, difficulty sustaining attention, increased activity level, increased need for examiner support and less persistence in attempting to complete tasks

ELBW infants at risk at 18 months
25% had an abnormal neurologic exam; 37% had a Bayley II Mental MDI <70; 29% had a Psychomotor PDI <70, 9% had vision & 11% had hearing impairment Increased morbidity: decreasing birth weight; lung disease; IVH
3-4 (brain hemorrhage), necrotizing enterocolitis Decreased morbidity: female gender, higher maternal education,
and white race.

Big picture
Continuous advances in medical technology mean that younger and lighter babies can be saved
Does this mean an increase in the proportion of surviving infants who have disabilities?

Survival improving—illness constant?
Survival in infants 501-1500 g improved, 84% (1995-1996), 80% in 1991, 74% in 1988.
Increased survival not associated with increased major morbidities 1991-1996– CLD (chronic lung disease; 23%), proven NEC (7%),
and severe ICH (11%)—did not change Mortality & major morbidity remain high for
smallest: <600 g at birth. • Lemons, J. A., Bauer, C. R., et al. & Network, N. N. R. (2001). Very Low Birth Weight Outcomes of the

What’s corrected age?
If baby born 10 weeks early 52 weeks after birth
– comes 10 weeks early– Only 30 weeks gestation– Not 40 weeks– So its 82 – not 92 – weeks of
development after conception
Solution: Correct (wait) 10 weeks
– Gives premies a chance to get on course
– Correct until 2 or 3 years

Predictors of disability
Identifiable brain abnormalities such as more severe intraventricular
hemorrhages (IVH) may occur before birth or in the nursery
Babies who have been the sickest and/or remained sick for long periods of time (several weeks).

risk factors

Agree or disagree?
Low Maternal Education associated with almost one fifth of the children in special education– associated with the highest percentage of special
education placements.– approximately one third of the children were born to
mothers who had less than 12 years of education. 22% of the sample had mothers with LME in the Metropolitan
Atlanta Developmental Disabilities Study (Satcher, 1995). Less than 1% of children receiving special
education services can be attributed to being VLBW because it is a low prevalence condition.
Public policy: Target Low Maternal Education

4 Month Results Positive affect, Social, and Communicative Competence:
– Higher vagal regulation less positive affect & communication at 4 months
but showed greater increases over time exceed those infants with lower vagal regulation.
– Fewer SES risks more optimal interactions at 4 months.– More neonatal health risks showed more positive affect at 4 months.
Quality of Play, Interest, and Attention:– Infants born closer to term were higher on this subscale at 4 months.– More SES risks poorer quality of this subscale at 4 months.
Dysregulation and Irritability:– Higher vagal regulation implied less dysregulation and irritability.

Reported Benefits of Kangaroo Care Decreased variation in heart and respiratory
rates, improved oxygenation, less bradycardia… Maintains skin and core temperatures through
conduction of heat from the parent. Promotes optimal growth and development. Beneficial for sleep-wake organisation. Increases mother’s milk production - unlimited
access to breast.

For both LBW & NBW
‘Mothers' maintaining children's interests supported 2- & 3½-yr skills 4½-yr cognitive and social independence
– Directiveness supported children's early cognitive and responsiveness skills
but by 3½ yrs, high levels of this behavior had a negative influence on cognitive and social independence at 4½ yrs.
High levels of maintaining interests across these ages support later independence,
– but directiveness needs to decrease in relation to children's increasing competencies.’

Responsive Parenting: Establishing Early Foundations for Social, Communication, and Independent Problem-Solving Skills (Landry, Swift, & Swank, 2006)
Responsive parenting: – Contingent responding– Emotional-affective support– Support for infant foci of attention– Language input that supports developmental needs
Intervention: PALS (Playing and Learning Strategies) v. DAS (Developmental Assessment Screening)
– 263 infants, 10 home visits between 6-10 months of age– Mothers reviewed weekly experience, visitor described purpose of visit,
discussed educational videotapes, videotaped mothers, mothers critiqued own behavior, discussed responsive strategies
– Infants were videotaped and assessed at each visit

Influence of responsive parenting on infant behavior: Intervention
Increases in mother’s responsive behaviorsincrease in infant skills in first year
– Responsiveness in all aspects improved more in target mothers– Greater changes in infant behaviors (cooperation, use of words, affect, problem
solving) in PALS Both with mother and novel adult
Responsiveness mediates impact on infant development– General responsiveness construct, with 4 distinct factors– Contingent responsiveness, verbal encouragement, and restrictiveness are
mediators Fully mediated relationship intervention became non-significant

Fewer VLBW adults graduate hi school: 74% vs 83% VLBW men, but not women, significantly less likely than controls
to be in postsecondary study (30% vs. 53%, P=0.002). VLBW lower IQ (87 vs 92) & academic achievement
Higher rates of neurosensory impairments (10% vs. <1%) and subnormal height (10% vs. 5%, P=0.04).
VLBW group reported less alcohol & drug use & lower rates of pregnancy– differences exist in those without neurosensory impairment.

The fetal origins of adult disease
“David Barker pioneered the idea that the 20th century epidemic of coronary heart disease in Western countries might have originated in fetal life.1Paradoxically, the epidemic coincided with improved standards of living and nutrition, yet in Britain its greatest impact was in the most deprived areas. Barker observed that early in the 20th century these areas had the highest rates of neonatal mortality and by inference the highest rates of low birth weight. He postulated that impaired fetal growth might have predisposed the survivors to heart disease in later life.”

Fetal Origins of Adult Disease:Concepts and Controversies
Association of low birthweight with increased risk of coronary heart disease, stroke, and type 2 diabetes.
– controlling for lifestyle factors such as smoking, physical activity, occupation, income, dietary habits, and childhood socioeconomic status.

Mechanism of effects?
Combination of small size at birth and during infancy, followed by accelerated weight gain from age 3 to 11 years, predicts large differences in CHD, type 2 diabetes and hypertension.
Mechanisms: developmental plasticity and compensatory growth.
