[Neurobehavioral evaluation of term and preterm neonates].
The Brazelton neonatal behavioral assessment scale in the actual version (1984) was used by the authors to examine neurobehavioral performance of two different groups of newborns (one fullterm and the other preterm). Although the average difference between gestational age in the two groups was not very high, the results show that the preterms were significantly inferior in habituation, motor and supplementary items. A lower gestational age results correlated with reduced performance in newborn.
