22 hours ago22 hr I would be very interested to learn how follow-up and physiotherapy referral are organized in different NICUs after discharge.Are all preterm infants routinely referred to or enrolled in physiotherapy follow-up programmes, or does your team first perform a developmental assessment and refer only those infants who demonstrate specific risk factors, abnormal findings, or emerging developmental concerns?If referral is selective, what criteria do you use, who makes the decision, and which developmental assessment tools are part of your follow-up pathway?I would be grateful to hear what you actually do in your everyday clinical practice.
