Abstract
The research team in the article "Infants Motor Development of 3-18 Month Premature Infants in Comparison with Their Normally Developing Peers based on Home Environment Affordance" has given an important part of the puzzle in learning the issues that premature infants face once out of the NICU (neonatal intensive care unit). Our task is to construct the therapeutic system; the critical diagnostic data will be found in their work. Through exaggerating the research results by applying specific digital health solutions, we will be able to empower parents with the skills and self-efficacy required to establish the enhanced home environments that their children need to succeed. This requires more cooperation among clinical researchers, developmental specialists, and health technologists to develop all-encompassing systems of care, which would support premature infants and their families smoothly, all the way, whether it is the intensive care unit or a safe and nurturing home setting.
