Abstract

Objective: to characterize the gross and fine motor performance and nutritional status of children from nutritional rehabilitation center (NRC) of Tunja aged 0-3 years. Methodolgy: an observational, cross-sectional descriptive study conducted on children under 36 months who were hospitalized at the NRC between January and June 2011. A total of 46 medical records were reviewed. Likewise, the anthropometric data of the anthro program were analyzed, and the Abbreviated Development Scale (ADE) was applied. Results: a significant association was observed between motor dexterity (both gross and fine) and acute malnutrition (p> 0.05). No association was found with other grades of malnutrition (p> 0.05). Discussion: children with acute malnutrition have a medium development of fine motor skills. Acute malnutrition states have less influence on the development of the alert status in fine motor dexterity than in that of gross motor dexterity. Despite this, the finding concerning the medium state of development for gross and fine motor dexterity is interesting because the behavior is similar for the state of acute malnutrition with high rates of damage.
