Summary

Cerebral palsy and other neuromotor disorders are more common in babies born preterm (\<37 weeks of gestation), due to various biological and environmental risk factors and the risk increases as the gestational age decreases. Earlier and more frequent screening with the use of developmental skills tests facilitates referral to early intervention programs. Current guidelines recommend using some combination of neuroimaging and neurological examination and assessments such as neonatal imaging, general movements (GMs), and Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination (HINE) for early diagnosis and intervention.
