Further discussion of general movements quality assessment( writhing movements) in early prediction validity of motor developmental outcome of high-risk infants / 中国小儿急救医学

ABSTRACT

Objective To study the predictive value of general movements( GMs) quality assess-ment technique(writhing movements)on the motor development outcome of high-risk infants,so as to pro-vide a reference basis for clinical diagnosis and treatment. Methods A retrospective analysis was made on the high-risk infants who were hospitalized in the Neonatal Department of the Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University from January 1,2017 to December 31,2018,and the GMs quality assessment was finished and followed up to 12-month-old among high-risk infants. The clinical diagnostic criteria for patients with cerebral palsy and Peabody Development Motor Scales-2 ( PDMS-2) were used to evaluate the motor development outcome of 12-month-old high-risk infants. Furthermore, the predictive value of GMs writhing movements on the motor development outcome of high-risk infants were evaluated. Results The predictive validity of writhing movements phase[cramped synchronized(CS) +poor repertoire(PR)]for mo-tor retardation and cerebral palsy in high-risk infants who met the inclusion criteria were as followsthe sensi-tivity,specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value were 94. 44%, 23. 03%, 11. 04%, 97. 62% and 100%,21. 88%,2. 60%,100%,respectively. The predictive sensitivity and negative predictive value of writhing movements PR for motor retardation and cerebral palsy were 92. 31%,100%;98. 18%, 100% respectively. The predictive sensitivity,specificity and negative predictive value of writhing movements CS for motor retardation and cerebral palsy were 100%,95. 81%,100% and 100%,95. 31% and 100%, respectively. Conclusion GMs quality assessment(writhing movements)has high reliability in predicting the motor development outcome of high-risk infants,especially cramped-synchronized has significant value in ear-ly screening of children with motor retardation and cerebral palsy.
