Primary Outcome Measures

Name	Time	Method
Child Development evaluated by the total score in the Bayley Child Development Scale 3rd Edition (Bayley-III), applied at 4, 6, 9 and 12 months of age. Bayley-III is a standardized test with a mean score of 100 and a standard deviation of 15. Score lower than 1 standard deviation below the mean is suggestive of developmental delay. The test has 3 subscales to obtain measures of language, motor and cognitive development. Controlling for the initial performance level, it is expected that at the end of the study: (a) the intervention group will present mean scores in each area significantly higher than the controls, and (b) statistical modeling should indicate a lower chance of developmental delay, in the different areas, in the intervention group.
