[The prone position as an indicator of deviated motor development during the first year of life].

The adequate control and alignment of a baby in the prone position during the first year of life is a basic necessary milestone for a normal, neuromotor development. In this study the prone position was registered in 246 babies with a previous pediatric evaluation, three options could be made: normal retarded or altered. The Milani Comparetti neuromotor evaluation was also realized for each baby at the same time with the same classification options.
