Study of Swaddling on Tactile Learning in Premature Infants

Study Overview
=================
Brief Summary
-----------------
Explore the sensorially of the premature newborn that is fundamental to adapting the care environment to these hospitalized babies

Detailed Description
-----------------
Indeed, the challenge is to offer them an environment adapted to their sensory skills, so as not to alter their development. This is in line with the customized care development, better known as the Anglo-Saxon term of Neonatal Individualised Developmental Care and Assessment Program. The aim is thus to promote later the cognitive development of these children

Primary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| time required to habituate a first object (corresponding to a time when the object is held repeatedly) and time required to present a new object (corresponding to the property of discrimination) | time required to habituate a first object (corresponding to a time when the object is held repeatedly) and time required to present a new object (corresponding to the property of discrimination) | up to 3 months max | 

Secondary Outcome Measures

| Outcome Measure | Measure Description | Time Frame |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Compare cognitive development at 2 years in both groups | Global development quotient, derived from the Brunet-Lezine scale, (performed systematically as part of the normal follow-up of premature babies in the N&D care network). the Brunet-Lezine scale : it is a global development quotient (QD) which is calculated and which corresponds to a standardized score (average of 100). Higher score corresponds to better child development | between first evaluation and 2 years |
