Reference curves for the Brazilian Alberta Infant Motor Scale: percentiles for clinical description and follow-up over time

Abstract: Objectives: To compare Alberta Infant Motor Scale scores for Brazilian infants with the Canadian norm and to construct sex-specific reference curves and percentiles for motor development for a Brazilian population. Methods:This study recruited 795 children aged 0 to 18 months from a number of different towns in Brazil. Infants were assessed by an experienced researcher in a silent room using the Alberta Infant Motor Scale. Sex-specific percentiles (P5, P10, P25, P50, P75 and P90) were calculated and analyzed f… Show more

“…O desenvolvimento motor foi avaliado com a Alberta Motor Infant Scale (AIMS) 16,17 , instrumento validado e normatizado para a população brasileira 18,19 o qual avalia a movimentação espontânea e habilidades motoras de bebês recém-nascidos até os 18 meses de idade. A escala é composta por 58 itens agrupados em quatro subescalas: prono (21 itens), supino (9 itens), sentado (12 itens) e em pé (16 itens) 16 .…”
