How to Measure the Intelligence Development of IVF
In vitro fertilization (IVF) means that the fertilized egg is cultivated to a certain stage of development through in vitro fertilization (IVF), and then implanted into the mother to obtain the baby. For the intelligence development of IVF, people often pay attention to how to measure its intelligence level and evaluate whether its development is normal. The following will be elaborated from four aspects.
1. Use of mental development scale
The Mental Development Scale is a tool used to assess the intellectual development of infants and young children. The commonly used psychological development scales are Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development and Mullen Scales of Early Learning.
The Banai Development Scale is one of the most commonly used test tools, which includes the assessment of cognitive, linguistic, sports and social emotions. Through tests, the intelligence level of infants can be evaluated and compared with that of normal developing infants of the same age. The immediate assessment focuses on the infants' daily activities, visual and auditory functions, and language ability.
The use of these mental development scales can objectively assess the intellectual development of test tube babies, and provide comparative data with children of the same age to judge whether their development is normal.
2. Observation of the development of perceptual movement
In addition to the psychological development scale, observing the development of perception and movement of test tube infants is also a commonly used measurement method. The development of infants' perception and movement includes the functional development of sensory organs, the coordination of large and small muscles, and the mastery of motor skills.
The actual observation of the movement response and motor skills of the test tube baby can understand its motor ability and the development of sensory organs. For example, whether the baby can reach out and touch the surrounding objects regularly, and whether it can rotate its head according to the direction of sound, etc.
By observing the development of infants' perception and movement, we can preliminarily judge whether their intellectual development is normal.
3. Application of neurodevelopmental imaging technology
In recent years, with the development of neuroscience, neurodevelopmental imaging technology has been widely used to assess the brain development of infants and young children. These techniques include magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), electroencephalogram (EEG) and functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI).
Neurodevelopmental imaging technology can provide intuitive images of the structure and function of the baby's brain, and evaluate the baby's brain development by observing the growth and connectivity of brain regions. For example, observe the changes of cortical surface area and gray matter volume, the spectral analysis of EEG, and the activity of brain regions.
These techniques can accurately measure the brain development of IVF infants and provide quantitative data as the basis for evaluation.
4. Long term follow-up observation
In measuring the intellectual development of IVF, long-term follow-up observation is crucial. Long term follow-up observation can help scientists and doctors understand the developmental trajectory of IVF and evaluate whether its intellectual development is suitable for children of the same age.
Long term follow-up observation methods include regular physical examination, cognitive development test, learning ability assessment, etc. Through regular measurement and observation, potential problems can be found and intervened in a timely manner.
To sum up, the intellectual development of IVF can be measured by the use of psychological development scale, observation of perceptual motor development, application of neurodevelopmental imaging technology and long-term follow-up observation. These methods can provide objective and quantitative data, and help doctors and parents judge whether the intellectual development of IVF is normal, so as to take corresponding intervention measures.
