RESUMO

The psychomotor development is typically characterized by the gradual acquisition of postural control. The prone position is indicated for the control cervical, scapular stability that favors, for the support of the forearms and hands. Therefore, the objective of this study was to identify the effect of different degrees of inclination of the supporting surface in the prone position on the neck control, trunk and upper limb. The study included thirty term infants, aged between one and four months, with typical motor development. The variables analyzed were neonatal characteristics, motor development by the Alberta Infant Motor Scale and kinematic evaluation of the head, trunk and upper limb, in three different positions of inclination of the support surface (0th, 25th and 45th). The kinematic data were digitized by Ariel Performance Analysis System software. In assessing kinematics were significantly different between groups and between positions for angles of inclination of the head and trunk extension, and only between the positions in the variable angle of the shoulder and elbow angle. The variables age, Alberta prone, supine Alberta, Alberta Total and angle of the head in the 0th, 25th and 45th, showed a significant positive association, especially with the variable tilt of the head and trunk extension. The inclination of the supporting surface can facilitate movement of the head and stem, however support the upper member can be further stimulated without the slope surface. For the overall development of the child, the 0th position is best.
