Preterm infants are vulnerable to brain injuries,and have a greater chance of experiencing neurodevelopmental disorders throughout development.Early screening for motor and cognitive functions is critical to assessing the developmental trajectory in preterm infants,especially those who may have motor or cognitive deficits.The brain imaging technology functional near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) is a portable and low-cost method of assessing cerebral hemodynamics,making it suitable for large-scale use even in remote and underdeveloped areas.In this article,we review peer-reviewed,scientific fNIRS studies of motor performance,speech perception,and facial recognition in preterm infants.fNIRS provides a link between hemodynamic activity and the development of brain functions in preterm infants.Research using fNIRS has shown different patterns of hemoglobin change during some behavioral tasks in early infancy.fNIRS helps to promote our understanding of the developmental mechanisms of brain function in preterm infants when performing motor or cognitive tasks in a less-restricted environment.
