- Opis:
- There is a need to create objective and reproducible tool for assessing the quality of infant movements. It’s substantially important to detect movement disorders in infants as early as possible. The study aimed to evaluate the reproducibility of kinesiological measurements of spontaneous movements performed by 51 infants (aged 6 to 15 weeks) recorded three times for two consecutive days using OSESEC computer analysis algorithms by determining numerical values of parameters, i.e., speed, acceleration, direction, and movement trajectory. Methods: The study group consisted of 51 infants. The diagnostic method of Prechtl was used for qualitative assessment. The quantitative assessment was based on the use of a OSESEC system. Numerical values for all movement parameters were determined, and the data obtained in the study were used for statistical analysis. Results: Analysis including movement parameter values on three consecutive recordings for the same infant revealed no statistically significant differences in location ( p = 0.073), range ( p = 0.557), shape ( p = 0.289), mean acceleration ( p = 0.124) and mean speed ( p = 0.767). This confirms the reproducibility of measurements of the proposed parameters of the objectification of spontaneous infant movements. Conclusions: The interpretability and accuracy of the presented parameters were proved. All parameters estimation is fully automated. Further research and testing requires a larger study group to create an objective diagnostic device for infants.
