Abstract: Tummy time is defined as awake prone positioning with unrestricted movement of limbs, which is encouraged and supervised by adults. As one of the most important physical activities during early stages of life, tummy time plays a critical role in promoting gross motor and cognitive development, preventing plagiocephaly and decreasing overweight and obesity. Recently, the World Health Organization and many countries worldwide issued guidelines on tummy time for infants; however, there is no tummy time guideline in China. To fill in this gap, the Capital Institute of Pediatrics, together with experts from sports science, pediatrics and child health care, has jointly developed the Infancy Tummy Time Guideline. As the first tummy time guideline for infants under one year old in China, it aims to provide professional recommendations for both child care professionals and parents. The guideline raises recommendations from four aspects, including principles for tummy time, duration and frequency, types of tummy time activities, and monitoring and evaluation, which gives professional guidance on scientific and safe tummy time activities for infants to meet their developmental needs.

摘要： 俯卧活动是指在成人的鼓励和看护下,婴儿清醒时俯卧并且不受限制地活动四肢和躯体。作为生命早期发育进程中婴儿能够移动身体前的一项重要身体活动方式,俯卧活动具有促进婴儿大运动和认知发展、预防位置性头颅畸形和超重肥胖等重要意义。近年来,世界卫生组织和全球多个国家发布的身体活动指南和共识对婴儿期俯卧活动做出了推荐,而我国尚无相关指南。首都儿科研究所联合运动科学、儿科学和儿童保健学领域的专家成立指南工作组,共同编写了《婴儿俯卧活动指南》。该指南是我国首个适用于1岁以下婴儿的俯卧活动指南,应用人群为婴幼儿养育照护相关从业人员和家长。《婴儿俯卧活动指南》遵循了婴儿运动发育规律,从俯卧活动指导原则、时间和频次、活动类型以及监测与评估等4个方面提出推荐,为婴儿科学和安全进行身体活动以满足其身体发育需求提供专业指导。
