Abstrakt: Of the infants scoring more than 2 SD below the mean motor skill for age on AIMS, 94.70%, 100%, and 93.55% were classified as having impairment by NSMDA at 4, 8, and 12 months respectively. Infants with motor impairment rated on the NSMDA as mild disability or worse had gross motor skills more than 2 SD below the mean for age. Motor performance was assessed by a physiotherapist, using the Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS)16 and the Neuro-Sensory Motor Developmental Assessment (NSMDA)11 at each visit. RESULTS Participating infants ( I n i = 191, 60% male) with a mean gestational age (95% CI) of 26.80 weeks (26.60, 27.10) and mean birthweight (95% CI) of 869 grams (843, 895) included 45 SGA infants (23.80%).
