AB  - OBJECTIVE: To assess the value of general movements (GMs) in predicting the 
      neurodevelopmental outcome using Bayley Scale of Infant Development III 
      (BSID-III) at two years of age in very low birth weight (VLBW) infants. METHODS: 
      This is a five-year observational study (January 2012-June 2017). Two hundred 
      twenty-seven VLBW infants were assessed in the neurodevelopmental clinic between 
      Jan 2012 and June 2017. Of these 137 infants had GMs assessments at 3 mo post 
      term (first visit to the clinic). RESULTS: Absence of fidgety movements (FMs) at 
      3 mo post term had high specificity and negative predictive value for moderate to 
      severe neurodevelopmental outcome in motor, cognition and language domains 
      (composite score less than 70 in the Bayley III scales of Infant development 
      scores). At 3 mo post term, absent FMs had high sensitivity, specificity and 
      negative predictive value (NPV) for cerebral palsy (CP). CONCLUSIONS: GMs 
      assessment at 3 mo post term could be considered as an important screening tool 
      for early identification of VLBW infants who are at risk of neurodevelopmental 
      impairment/cerebral palsy.
