Abstract

Aim: To assess the effects of an early motor intervention program in the motor development of babies in Porto Alegre shelters, between 1 and 14 months. Methods: Randomized clinical trial with 13 infants in the interventional group (IG) and 12 infants in the control group (CG). Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS) assessed the babies and the GI held two months of intervention (to chase object, manipulate toys and postural control).Results: Not different from the pre motor development and post-intervention in the CG. GI had an increase in the percentage of normal and reduced motor delay. In the comparison between the groups, there was significance in the pre intervention, since the GI infants were more backward. In the post intervention, the difference did not remain significant due to the marked improvement in the GI. The GI also obtained significant results in the positions prone, supine, sedestation, orthostatic. The GC obtained significance only in orthostatic, and can be justified by the highest average age in this group. Conclusion: IG Babies improved their motor development rating.
