The project is a national, prospective, multicenter, interventional pilot project focused on the follow up of 5 year old children that were born prematurely.
The primary aim of the project is to prepare, test, and develop a proposal for a national methodology for the care of children born prematurely. This will minimize the negative impacts on the overall development of the child and the family of the prematurely born children.
