- W4239549416 abstract "Abstract Background: In developing countries, malnutrition in children and developmental delays are two major challenges for public health. To achieve the vision of the Sustainable Development Goals in the broader perspective of child health, an early identification of developmental delays and timely intervention is crucial. The aim of this study is to assess the prevalence of suspected developmental delay and their predictors in under-five uncomplicated severe acute malnourished children in rural areas of Pakistan. Methods: A multicenter cross-sectional study has been conducted among 185 uncomplicated severe acute malnourished children. We screened 6–59 months aged children for their nutritional status and clinical complications. Children fulfilling the inclusion criteria underwent the Denver Development Screening Tool II (DDSTII). The global developmental profile of children was calculated according to established protocols of DDSTII based on four important domains of development: personal and social behaviour, language, gross motor adaptive and fine motor adaptive skills. A pretested structured questionnaire on socio-demographic and nutritional factors was used for assessing predictors of developmental delay, which were analysed in a multivariate logistic regression model. Results: Out of 177 severe acute malnourished children, 69 (38.9%) had normal global development and 108 (61.1%) had delayed global development. Significant associations with global development delay were found for lower aged children (6-24 months vs. 25-59 month; AOR=4.53, 95% CI: 1.56–13.10, p<0.01), not exclusively breastfeed children (AOR=3.07, 95% CI: 1.24–7.56, p=0.01), and a history of contact with tuberculosis smear positive adult (AOR=2.67, 95% CI: 1.30–5.49, p<0.01). Conclusion: With about two thirds of study participants showing delayed or unstable global development, there is a high prevalence of suspected developmental delay among under-five uncomplicated severe acute malnourished children in rural areas Pakistan. Particularly children in their first two years of life with insufficient breastfeeding are at high risk. This emphasizes the need for providing adequate infrastructure and information to parents in remote areas." @default.
