    This study explored neurodevelopmental sensory integration in three young children with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities. Treatment showed promising trends toward early cognitive development, focusing on attention and affect.

    Area of Science:

    • Developmental Pediatrics
    • Neuroscience
    • Occupational Therapy

    Background:

    • Children with profound intellectual and multiple disabilities often exhibit delayed neurodevelopment.
    • Sensory integration is crucial for cognitive and motor development.
    • Early intervention can positively impact developmental trajectories.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To investigate the effects of mother-administered, clinic-supervised sensory integration therapy.
    • To observe developmental changes in profoundly disabled children under five.
    • To explore early cognitive emergence related to attention and affect.

    Main Methods:

    • A nine-month observational study involving three subjects under five years old.
    • Therapy focused on neurodevelopmental sensory integration.

  • Data collection included postural reactions, affect, and object responses.

    • Main Results:

    • Observed emergence of more advanced postural reactions.
    • Recorded changes in emotional affect and engagement.
    • Noted increased responsiveness to objects.

    Conclusions:

    • Mother-administered sensory integration therapy shows potential for improving neurodevelopmental outcomes.
    • Early cognitive emergence, particularly "fixation attention," may be influenced by affect and interest.
    • Further research is warranted to explore these developmental trends in similar populations.
