title: [Neuromotor follow-up of premature infants with lowbirth-weight (author's transl)].
abstract: In the years 1971-1972 53 premature babies weighing between 1000-1500 g survived in the special department of the Linz hospital ward for premature children i.e. 45.5%. Their postnatal management and neurophysiologic follow-up are reported. 20 children were "normal", 38% had slight, 20% more pronounced developmental delay. In 81.4% there were in addition minimal disturbances of movement. 2 had severe spastic tetraplegia. The study of these data indicated ways of improvement which have been effected since.
