["Illustrated guide for the observation of the sensory-motor behavior of the preterm newborn"]. / Guide illustré pour l'observation du comportement sensori-moteur du nouveau-né prématuré.

Developmental care is defined by a personalized approach to the premature child. Observation of sensory-motor behavior is a key part of this approach and requires specific training and the use of observation tools. This study analyzes the use of an illustrated guide during the observation and evaluation of the sensory-motor behavior of the premature baby; this didactic contribution constitutes a real added value for the professionals, allowing the elaboration of a care project.

In intensive care units, the priority is to provide the care and treatments essential for the child's survival. However, the psychological aspect must not be ignored. The sensory-motor approach contributes to the provision of high-quality care in this context. It enables individualised care to be delivered in an environment optimising the child's resources.
