游泳对新生儿体格和神经发育的影响

Effect of Swimming on Physical and Neurological Development in Neonate

目的探讨游泳对新生儿体格和神经发育的影响。方法将足月顺产的120例新生儿随机分为观察组和对照组,各60例。对照组进行单纯沐浴,观察组进行新生儿游泳。比较干预前后两组新生儿体格发育情况和干预后神经发育情况。结果干预3个月后观察组的体重和身长明显高于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.01);干预后观察组新生儿神经行为评分(NBNA)、精神发育指数(MDI)和心理运动发育指数(PDI)明显高于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.01)。结论游泳对新生儿体格和神经发育均具有积极的促进作用,有利于其身心健康的发展。

Objective To investigate the effect of swimming on physical and neurological development in neonate. Methods We divided 120 full-term neonates randomly into observation and control group, each consisting of 60 neonates. The control group received bath alone, and the observation group was given swimming. The physical and neurological development was compared between the two groups before and after intervention. Results The weight and body length after 3-month intervention were considerably higher in the observation group than those in the control group,with significant differences,both P〈0.01. And the NBNA,MDI and PDI scores after intervention were also markedly higher （P〈0.01）. Conclusion Swimming can facilitate the physical and neurological development in neonate,in favor of the development of their body and soul.
