ABSTRACT
Prenatal SARS-CoV-2 infection may be a risk factor for neurological impairment. This study describes the neuromotor behavior of infants prenatally exposed to SARS-CoV-2 using gold standard tools for early detection of neurological impairment. Sixteen infants were included in this exploratory longitudinal study. Infants were assessed at 3 months using the Prechtl General Movement Assessment, and at 6 months using the Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination. Infants might have presented neuromotor limitations at 3 months; however, they progressed to a low-risk outcome of neurological impairment at 6 months.
