Summary
This summary is machine-generated.The Escala de la Calidad del Desempeño Sensoriomotor (ECDSM2-15) effectively classifies infant sensorimotor performance into five areas. This tool is highly sensitive for detecting changes in infants with motor delay or cerebral palsy.
Area Of Science
- Pediatric Rehabilitation
- Developmental Neuroscience
- Motor Control
Background
- The Escala de la Calidad del Desempeño Sensoriomotor (ECDSM2-15) assesses sensorimotor performance in infants aged 2-15 months.
- It is used for infants with motor delay (MD) or at risk/diagnosed with cerebral palsy (CP).
- The scale evaluates typical, delayed, and atypical strategies in alignment, movement, and base of support.
Purpose Of The Study
- To refine cutoff points for percentile areas of the ECDSM2-15.
- To determine the sensitivity to change of the ECDSM2-15's six subscales.
Main Methods
- 1,432 infants were sampled for percentile area adjustment and 371 for sensitivity to change analysis.
- Data were collected from three child rehabilitation centers in Chile.
- Statistical analyses included Wilcoxon and δ Somers tests (p <0.05).
Main Results
- Five distinct sensorimotor performance areas were established: atypical, mildly atypical, delayed at risk of atypical, delayed, and typical.
- The ECDSM2-15 demonstrated significant sensitivity to change across all age groups.
Conclusions
- The ECDSM2-15 reliably classifies infants with MD or CP into five percentile areas of sensorimotor performance.
- The scale is highly sensitive in detecting functional sensorimotor performance changes, enhancing its clinical utility.
