Infants were assessed at 12 and 24 months corrected age using the Schedule of Growing Skills developmental screening test. Scores for skill areas were converted to developmental levels in months and graded as normal or mild, moderate or severe delay.<h4>Results</h4>Of 101 infants assessed at 12 months, 12 (12%) had severe developmental delay (developmental level <6months) in one or more skill areas. At 24 months, severe developmental delay (developmental level <12 months) was found in 8 (9.1%) infants. Only 3 infants had severe global delay. However, approximately a third of infants showed mild or moderate delay in hearing and language, social or cognitive skill areas by 24 months.<h4>Conclusion</h4>Developmental assessment undertaken by health visitors may be used to measure outcome in preterm infants. Severe developmental delay was at a level consistent with other follow-up studies of very preterm infants. Severe delay was identified by the 12-month check and was mainly in areas of motor function and language. High levels of mild to moderate developmental delay were identified at the 24-month assessment.","is_dataset_classified":null,"base_score":1.791759469228055,"endowment":1.791759469228055,"datacite_reuse_total":0,"file_count":0,"downloads":0,"views":0,"has_version_chain":false,"is_dataset":false,"is_oa":false,"pmid":"19615924","pmcid":null,"openalex_id":"https://openalex.org/W2029497692","authors":[],"funders":[],"total_grants":0,"fwci":0.0,"citation_percentile":0.11555384,"influential_citations":0,"citation_trend":[{"year":2013,"count":1},{"year":2016,"count":1},{"year":2019,"count":1},{"year":2020,"count":1},{"year":2021,"count":1}],"oa_status":"closed","license":"https://www.elsevier.com/tdm/userlicense/1.0/","oa_locations":[{"url":"https://api.elsevier.com/content/article/PII:S1090379809001068?httpAccept=text/xml","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"https://api.elsevier.com/content/article/PII:S1090379809001068?httpAccept=text/plain","host_type":"publisher"},{"url":"https://doi.org/10.1016/j.ejpn.2009.06.005","host_type":"journal"},{"url":"https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19615924","host_type":"repository"}],"fields_of_study":["Infant Development and Preterm Care","Neonatal Respiratory Health Research","Neonatal and fetal brain pathology","Age Distribution","Child Development","Child, Preschool","Cohort Studies","Community Health Nursing","Developmental Disabilities","Disability Evaluation","Follow-Up Studies","Health Surveys","Home Care Services","Humans","Infant","Infant Behavior","Infant, Newborn","Infant, Premature","Intellectual Disability","Language Development Disorders","Mass Screening","Motor Skills Disorders","Patient Care Team","Physical Examination","Prevalence","Social Behavior"],"mesh_terms":["Child Development","Developmental Disabilities","Child, Preschool","Community Health Nursing","Disability Evaluation","Follow-Up Studies","Health Surveys","Home Care Services","Humans","Infant","Infant, Newborn","Infant, Premature","Language Development Disorders","Mass Screening","Intellectual Disability","Patient Care Team","Physical Examination","Social Behavior","Cohort Studies","Prevalence","Age Distribution","Infant Behavior","Motor Skills Disorders"],"keywords":["Language delay","Pediatrics","Deliverable","Medicine","Developmental Milestone","Global developmental delay","Child development","Motor skill","Cohort","Cognitive development","Cognition","Language development","Developmental psychology","Psychology","Psychiatry","Internal medicine"],"sdg_mappings":[{"sdg_number":0,"sdg_label":"Quality Education"}],"linked_datasets":[],"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"database_accessions":[],"source":"live","citation_network_status":"fetched"},"created_at":"2026-08-18T21:20:10.432866Z","pmid":null,"pmcid":null,"fwci":null,"citation_percentile":null,"influential_citations":0,"oa_status":null,"license":null,"views":0,"total_file_size_bytes":0,"version_count":0,"fair_f":null,"fair_a":null,"fair_i":null,"fair_r":null,"fair_zscore":null,"fair_rationale":null,"fair_model":null,"fair_agent_version":null,"fair_fulltext_source":null,"fair_has_llm":null,"fair_computed_at":null,"clinical_trials":[],"software_tools":[],"db_accessions":[],"linked_datasets":[],"topics":[]}
