[Effect of intranatal asphyxia on the pattern of psychomotor development of children up to 7 years of age].

The paper is concerned with the psychophysical development of 460 children born in asphyxia of varying gravity. The establishment of psychomotor functions was traced over time, since the moment of birth to 7 years. The highest rate of complications was diagnosed in children aged 6-7 years. It should be mentioned, however, that gross disturbances were primarily detected at an early age, whereas at a late age different intellectual abnormalities were diagnosed. Children with a history of grave asphyxia need rehabilitation treatment aimed at the recovery of psychomotor functions.
