Abstrakt: Objective: To perform a systematic review in order to verify the association between full-term birth of small for gestational age (SGA) children and the outcomes in the development of oral language.Data source:Articles from MEDLINE/PubMed, Web of Science, Embase, Lilacs, SciELO and Cochrane Library databases were identified, selected and critically evaluated by two independent reviewers and a judge, blindly, without language restriction and publication period. The PRISMA tool was used, and original studies with a theme involving children born full-term and SGA were included, outcome related to aspects of oral language development, as well as the use of tests, scales and/or specific questionnaires for the investigation, whose methodology was described in full, with children as the target population.Data synthesis:The researchers included nine articles based on the eligibility criteria. Studies have shown that being born SGA can interfere in aspects related to language and reported greater chances of under performance in SGA children when compared to children with appropriate size for gestational age. It was observed that the different studies did not have a uniform design, and the objectives were quite diverse. Furthermore, few of them had as focus issues related to the assessment of language, as well as the variability of instruments used to investigate this domain.
Conclusions: The effects of low weight for gestation age in full-term infants continue beyond the neonatal period and may impact on children's performance, mainly with regard to oral language development.
