ABSTRACT
La intervención motora temprana es esencial en niños con parálisis cerebral; sin embargo, se desconoce su efectividad entre los 3 y los 5años. El objetivo fue determinar la efectividad de la intervención motora temprana en el desarrollo motor de dicha población. Se realizó una revisión sistemática de literatura acerca de intervenciones motoras tempranas realizada en diferentes bases de datos como Pubmed/Medline, PEDro, OTSeeker, Embase y LILACS. Finalmente se seleccionaron 18 artículos, de los cuales 4 presentaron cambios a favor del grupo experimental en los desenlaces desarrollo motor global y función motora manual, con la terapia de integración sensorial y la terapia de movimiento inducido por restricción, respectivamente; no obstante, los resultados no fueron estadísticamente significativos y el nivel de evidencia fue bajo. La intervención motora temprana podría incluirse con precaución para la mejoría del desarrollo motor global y la función manual. Es necesario realizar estudios de mayor calidad metodológica. (AU)

Early motor intervention could be cautiously considered for improving overall motor development and manual function. Higher-quality methodological studies are necessary. (AU)
