Neurological examination and neurodevelopmental assessment tools in NICU and beyond.
The general Movement Assessment Tool webinar.
This presentation will provide a comprehensive overview of Prechtl's General Movement Assessment (GMA), a critical tool for the early identification of neurological dysfunction in infants. We will begin by introducing the methodology of the GMA, outlining the observation process for "writhing" and "fidgety" movements. A significant focus will be placed on the clinical significance, particularly its predictive value for cerebral palsy and other neurodevelopmental disorders. The Speaker will present key research findings, including studies demonstrating the high sensitivity and specificity of the GMA.
