Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the clinical value of the General Movements (GMs) in predicting the neurological outcome of high-risk infants with cerebral palsy in the early stage, and to analyze the application of the Peabody Developmental Motor Scale-Gross Motor (PDMS-GM) and Gross Motor Function Measure Scale (GMFM) in the rehabilitation assessment and intervention of high-risk infants with cerebral palsy.Methods:The gross motor function of 64 high-risk infants with cerebral palsy before treatment and after 2 months of treatment in Department of Child Rehabilitation, Zhengzhou Central Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University from January 2017 to December 2019 was evaluated using PDMS-GM and GMFM.The total percentage of PDMS-GM and GMFM before and after treatment, and the monthly relative percentage of PDMS-GM and GMFM were compared.The correlation between PDMS-GM and GMFM original scores in the writhing and fidgety movements period before treatment, and that between PDMS-GM and GMFM original scores before and after treatment were compared.High-risk infants with cerebral palsy were followed up to 1 year old, and their neurological outcome was determined according to the clinical diagnosis and evaluation results.The predictive value of GMs on the outcome of cerebral palsy was evaluated.Results:Compared with that before treatment, the total percentage of PDMS-GM and GMFM in high-risk infants with cerebral palsy increased significantly after treatment [PDMS-GM: (37.250±13.690)% vs.(20.992±10.273)%, t=-15.793, P<0.01; GMFM: (22.672±8.438)% vs.(10.601±7.890)%, t=-16.442, P<0.01]. PDMS-GM original scores in the writhing movements period and fidgety movements period before treatment were highly correlated with those of GMFM (writhing movements period: r=0.922, P<0.01; fidgety movements period: r=0.905, P<0.01). PDMS-GM original score before and after treatment were highly correlated with those of GMFM (before treatment: r=0.901, P<0.01; after treatment: r=0.801, P<0.01). There was no significant difference in the monthly relative percentage of PDMS-GM and GMFM [(97.286±88.330)% vs.(76.885±43.815)%, t=-1.656, P=0.103]. The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value and negative predictive value of the writhing movements period to the prediction of cerebral palsy outcome were 90.7%, 82.3%, 23.4%, and 95.8%, respectively, which were 98.3%, 88.1%, 27.6% and 96.8% in the fidgety movements period, respectively.At 1-year-old follow-up, 3 cases of spastic cerebral palsy were found in a high risk with cerebral palsy, and 1 case was cramped synchronized and 2 cases were absence of fidgety movements. Conclusions:Gross motor function of high-risk infants with cerebral palsy was significantly improved after treatment compared with that before treatment, and PDMS-GM and GMFM were consistent in the assessment of gross motor function of high-risk infants with cerebral palsy in the writhing and fidgety movements period before and after treatment.In the early screening of infants at high risk of cerebral palsy, absence of fidgety movements and cramped synchronized maybe predict spastic cerebral palsy more sensitively, and fidgety movements assessment was more sensitive to predict spastic cerebral palsy outcome than writhing movements assessment.
