dc.description.abstractOBJECTIVES: To review studies in the scientific literature of five physical interventions commonly recommended for children with neurodevelopmental delay. DESIGN: A literature search for and a review of the results of controlled and other studies conducted in the course of the last 25 years. SETTING: Institute of Child Health, University of Cape Town. SUBJECTS: Patterning; neurodevelopmental therapy; sensory integrative therapy; optometric visual training; auditory integration therapy. OUTCOME MEASURES: Findings and conclusions drawn in the studies reviewed. RESULTS: Controlled studies fail to provide evidence to support claims made for the five interventions examined. CONCLUSIONS: In the absence of scientific evidence for efficacy patterning, neurodevelopmental therapy, sensory integrative therapy, optometric visual training and auditory integrative therapy cannot be recommended for children with neurodevelopmental delay.
