- Abstract
The validated tools for early diagnosis of CP include the Hammersmith Infant Neurological examination, magnetic resonance imaging, and general movement assessment (GMA); one of the best being GMA with a sensitivity and specificity of up to 95% [1]. Therefore, GMA using home-videos may be a simple and easy followup means for neurodevelopmental assessment in high-risk infants amid the COVID-19 pandemic. The majority of these high-risk infants eventually evolve to have cerebral palsy (CP) which is an umbrella term to accommodate any type of static neuromotor impairment.
