Assessment of Affordances in the Home Environment and Neurodevelopment of Children With Congenital Zika Syndrome
Nearly half of the children with CZS who exhibited neurodevelopmental delays lived in homes lacking appropriate sensory stimulation. This study suggests that motor and visual development, including fine and gross motor skills as well as functional vision, may be benefited by the quantity and quality of play and stimulation opportunities available at home.
