Resumo

In this thesis, in chapter 1 called Initial Considerations, we report the relevant publications around back and foot support, theme that was addressed throughout this thesis in our writings of scientific articles. In chapter 3 contains an original article adapted for publication in the International Archives of Otorhinolaryngology, ISSN 1809-4856 (online version). This article entitled “Study of auditory and visual sensory responses in infants aged 6 to 15 months with and without back and foot support” aimed to evaluate auditory and visual sensory responses in infants through auditory evaluations (Evaluation of the Auditory behavior) and visual behavior (evaluation of visual acuity with the use of Lea Gratings) in two situations in both tests: with and without back and foot support. In chapter 4 composed of the original article adapted for publication in the Brazilian Journal of Ophthalmology ISSN 1982-8551(online version) is written. This article entitled “Orientation and fixation visual response to visual experiments in children: use of back and foot support” was intended to report the positive influence of back and foot support in visual sensory input during visual tasks. This article was composed of two visual experiments with different samples. In experiment 1 we used visual detection test Lea Gratings in infants, while in experiment 2 we used eye tracking in which we investigated the duration of eye fixation in children with autism spectrum disorder. In the scientific articles that were described in Chapters 3 and 4, when we used the dorsal and foot support situation, both the back and feet were offered and the opposite occured (not offered) in the situation without support. In chapter 5 we described our pilot project that we call phase 2 of the research entitled “Looking at foot support in infant: Pilot ProjectA and Looking at back and foot support in adults: Pilot ProjectB”. At this stage we researched in infants how would be the visual and auditory responses with back support and without foot support. Also in this phase 2, we researched how the visual and auditory responses would be in adults with and without back and foot support. In chapter 6 we presented in the final considerations the link between the themes addressed throughout this manuscript and theoretical and clinical developments. The results of this thesis will be presented to the PosGraduate Program in Health Sciences, a concentration area in Child and Adolescent Health to obtain a doctoral degree.
