ABSTRACT

Objective: We present the techniques used by the Department of Medicine in Communication Disorders of the Pediatric Follow-up Service of the National Institute of Perinatology for children with high-risk for neurologic injury. We provide infants with auditory, vestibular and neurolinguistic stimuli in the prelinguistic period (0-12 months) and early linguistic period (12 to 36 months).
Development: Early intervention in hearing and language refers to strategies that will enhance skills which later will allow the child to communicate with his environment. It includes comprehensive, expressive, integrative and gestural capabilities, since hearing function is the main pathway for language learning. Language is a higher cortical function exclusive to man, through which messages are coded and decoded. Children discharged from neonatal intensive care units are at high risk for sensory and neurological sequelae.
Conclusion: Physicians or specialists in early intervention can offer these children models of adequate strategies to engage parents in hearing and language stimulation processes.
