General movements as a predictive tool of the neurological outcome in term born infants with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy
Background At a time of increasing high risk neonates, an assessment method is needed
that can reliably predict neurological deficits at an early age. Aims The objective of this study
was to determine whether the assessment of fidgety movements (FMs) will predict the
neurological outcome of infants with hypoxic ischemic encephalopathy (HIE). Study design
This study employed a prospective and descriptive plan. Subjects The study sample
consisted of 15 infants (8 male and 7 female) born at term. Video recording of FMs were …
