Efeitos de um roteiro de estimulação sensório motora empregando o jogo e o brincar na terapêutica de uma criança com atraso no DNPM.

Abstract

Introduction: Through the toy and the play, the child is able to create and recreate situations of his daily life, having the opportunity to understand the world and to understand himself in the world. Sensorimotor physiotherapy can use elements of the game, as well as the fundamentals of play, to make therapy more pleasurable and potentially more efficient. Objective: To verify the contribution of a sensorimotor stimulation script, based on the principles of play and playfulness, for the interweaving between the sensorial and motor aspects, favoring the integral development and also the interactions of a child with delay in the Neuropsychomotor Development (NPMD) with the environment. Method: Retrospective case study, exploratory observational type, with a qualitative-quantitative approach. Pre- and post-intervention evaluations were performed, using Berg Balance Scale (BBS), document analysis, photos, filming and records in the field notebook. The proposed sensorimotor activities were guided by the principles of playfulness, using games and play as conducting elements of the therapy. Results: There was an improvement in the balance, through BBS and daily motor skills, from the analysis of the records in the field notebook, as well as the analysis of the photos and filming. There was also an improvement in the interaction with the people, in the understanding of the requested tasks and in the verbal expression. Conclusion: The results point to the efficacy of games and play for improved balance, broad motor skills and task comprehension of a 9-year-old child with NPMD Delay.
