Abstract

Objective To explore the relationship between late-preterm birth and developmental coordination disorder (DCD) in children aged 3 to 6 years old. Methods A total of 6 811 children aged 3~6 were randomly selected from 25 kindergartens of 5 cities located at southern,northern,middle areas of Jiangsu Province,respectively.A questionnaire was used to investigate their birth history and health condition.Children who submitted the questionnaire without missing items took part in the motor ability test by Movement Assessment Battery for Children-Second Edition (MABC-2). Results A total of 6 147 children finished all the tests.No evidence showed that late-preterm birth had an effect on DCD and manual dexterity impairment,but it may be related to children's aiming & catching ability,and late-preterm birth children did have dramatic lower balance skill ability than full term birth children. Conclusion Late-preterm birth is harmful to balance skills as well as aiming & catching skills in preschool children,and impairment on different part to the growing brain may be the possible reason.
