Author(s): Sumbul Akhlaque Khan
Abstract: The long-term effect of early intervention in infants at risk for developmental disorders is unclear. The VIP project (n = 46, originally) evaluated by means of a randomized controlled trial the effect of the family centered early intervention programme COPCA (Coping with and Caring for infants with special needs) in comparison to that of traditional infant physiotherapy (TIP).To evaluate the effect of early intervention on functional outcome at school age. Parents of 40 children (median age 8.3 years) participated in this follow-up study. Outcome was assessed with a standardized parental interview (Vineland Adaptive Behavior Scale) and questionnaires (Developmental Coordination Disorder Questionnaire, Child Behaviour Checklist, and questions on educational approach). Quantified video information on physiotherapeutic actions during infancy was available.
