Brief Summary
The project is a national, prospective, multicenter, interventional pilot project focused on the follow up of 5 year old children that were born prematurely. The primary aim of the project is to prepare, test, and develop a proposal for a national methodology for the care of children born prematurely. This will minimize the negative impacts on the overall development of the child and the family of the prematurely born children.

OTHERInterventions
Eligible children are invited to undergo a comprehensive pediatric evaluation, including vision screening (Plusoptix) and speech and language tests (TEPO - sentence comprehension, TEPRO - vocabulary production). Subsequently, children are referred for psychological (IDS-P), motor (MABC-2), and pulmonary (spirometry) assessments. If any deviations are identified, the child is referred to appropriate specialists (e.g., rehabilitation physician, speech therapist, psychiatrist, ophthalmologist).
