Abstract

This cross-sectional descriptive research aimed to examine factors related to the development of preterm children aged 1-2 years. The subjects of this study were the mothers and preterm children aged 1-2 years at a newborn clinic and a very low birth weight clinic in a university hospital. The data were collected from June to November 2020. There were 78 subjects selected by purposive sampling. Data were collected using a personal information questionnaire and the Developmental Assessment for Intervention Manual. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics and the Chi-square test. The study revealed that the normal developmental preterm children
were 71.79%, and the suspected developmental delays were 28.21%. The findings showed that the mostly suspected delayed development aspect was expressive language.The factors related to the development of preterm children aged 1-2 years were storytelling and breastfeeding with statistical significance. Therefore, the relevant agencies should periodically monitor the development of preterm children and advise mothers about age-related storytelling and promoting breastfeeding to promote the development of preterm children according to their age.
