Sensitivity and specificity of the Neonatal Visual Assessment to predict motor and cognitive outcomes in infants born very preterm
Background
Very preterm infants are at increased risk of neurodevelopmental impairments. The Neonatal Visual Assessment (NVA) assesses visual function and outcomes and has been used to assess early neurodevelopmental outcomes. This study aimed to compare NVA results of very preterm and term-born infants and to calculate the sensitivity and specificity of the NVA at term equivalent age (TEA) and three months corrected age (CA) to predict motor and cognitive outcomes at 12 months CA in very preterm infants.
Methods
This prospective observational cohort study recruited infants born before 31 weeks gestation and a healthy term-born control group. The NVA was assessed at TEA and three months CA, and neurodevelopmental outcomes (Bayley Scales of Infant and Toddler Development, Third Edition; Neurosensory Motor Developmental Assessment; Alberta Infant Motor Scale) were performed at 12 months CA. The sensitivity and specificity of the NVA to predict outcomes were calculated based on a previously published optimality score.
Results
248 preterm (54 % male) and 46 term-born infants (48 % male) were analysed. The mean NVA scores of preterm and term-born infants were significantly different at TEA (preterm 3.12.1; term-born 1.21.7, p < 0.001). The NVA had moderate sensitivity (59–78 %) and low specificity (25–27 %) at TEA, and low sensitivity (21–28 %) and high specificity (86–87 %) at three months CA for the prediction of preterm infants' outcomes at 12 months CA.
Conclusion
The NVA at TEA and three months CA was not a strong predictor of motor and cognitive impairments in this contemporary cohort of very preterm infants.
期刊介绍:
Established as an authoritative, highly cited voice on early human development, Early Human Development provides a unique opportunity for researchers and clinicians to bridge the communication gap between disciplines. Creating a forum for the productive exchange of ideas concerning early human growth and development, the journal publishes original research and clinical papers with particular emphasis on the continuum between fetal life and the perinatal period; aspects of postnatal growth influenced by early events; and the safeguarding of the quality of human survival.
The first comprehensive and interdisciplinary journal in this area of growing importance, Early Human Development offers pertinent contributions to the following subject areas:
Fetology; perinatology; pediatrics; growth and development; obstetrics; reproduction and fertility; epidemiology; behavioural sciences; nutrition and metabolism; teratology; neurology; brain biology; developmental psychology and screening.
