LOPEZ-GOMEZ, Santiago; CAJAL-CERNUDA, Carlos José; ORDONEZ-BLANCO, Sonia Ma. and URIBE-RODRIGUEZ, Ana Fernanda. Instruments for identifying perinatal risk and associated neuropsychological evaluation. Rev Colomb Obstet Ginecol [online]. 2008, vol.59, n.4, pp.310-315. ISSN 0034-7434.
Some specific perinatal maternal complications can become key factors in child development. It is known that many children having a wide variety of alterations have suffered different complications during their gestational development. The maternal risks which have taken place throughout the preperinatal period thus sometimes entail associated different damage which can be neuropsychological, physical and/or psycho-social. This report identifies the main factors associated with perinatal risk and their implications; the standard procedures for risk evaluation are shown from a medical-neuropsychological perspective and the newborn's psycho-social viewpoint.
Keywords : perinatal risk; neuropsychology; evaluation procedure; perinatal risk dimension; child development.
