What are the exercise methods for audiovisual stimulation in preterm infants?

As medical technology continues to advance, some children who were born prematurely or with low birth weight have been able to cross the first “threshold of life and death” but will have to face many more developmental problems than normal children. The birth of a premature baby means increased risk of illness and disease, and special care is needed to care for the premature baby, as well as attention to audio-visual stimulation exercises for the premature baby. What are the methods of exercise for audiovisual stimulation of preterm babies? Experts say that preterm infants are small for their gestational age, if combined with infection and hypoxia, they are prone to retinopathy, generally 4-6 weeks after birth to do a fundus screening, once the abnormality, 2-3 months through laser treatment, most can be restored to normal; wait for preterm infants born to full term (40 weeks or so), but also to do hearing screening. In addition to these examinations, it is necessary for parents to provide stimulation training to their children in advance in terms of vision, hearing and motor skills. With the active cooperation of parents, the early provision of rich and good environmental stimulation and various functional training, it is entirely possible for a premature child to keep up with the physical and intellectual development of a normal child. One, parents talk to their children more often, not only to exchange emotions, but also to promote the development of their children’s language skills. Two, in a warm room, for the child to roll over, move the limbs and other motor training. Three, with brightly colored graphics, toys, especially red items, can stimulate the child’s vision; at the same time, teach the child to identify the size, shape, etc., to exercise the child’s memory. Fourth, let the child listen to 10 to 20 minutes of soothing music every day, remember not too long, otherwise, it will cause auditory fatigue; sound can not be too loud, it will lead to auditory damage.
