RESUMO

The need of using the corrected age in pre-term infants (PT) to assess the motor development (MD) is a controversial issue. To verify the need of using the corrected age, during the first six months the corrected age, 43 PT were analysed according to Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS), as one group and as divided into two groups according to gestational age. The results suggested that there is statistically significance in the MD, when the chronological age is used. In conclusion, there is the need of correcting the age, in order not to under-estimate the MD of PT, classifying them as delayed
