“…This is because cutoff points were selected prioritizing the PPV in terms of having the least possible false positive results. Consequently, the PPV of our questionnaire is high, between 0.63 and 0.90 according to the questionnaire used, values that are comparable to the 0.23 of the Denver questionnaire 11 and the ASQ questionnaire of 0.40 in a study, 13 and of 0.20 in another one. …”

“…For instance, Frankenburg obtained a sensitivity of 0.25 % in the one developed to select children to administer the Denver test. [10][11] Although the sensitivity of our questionnaires is not very high, in average it is slightly higher than 0.40. This is because cutoff points were selected prioritizing the PPV in terms of having the least possible false positive results.…”

“…It is worth mentioning that when referring to a SP of 0.25, 25% of the most severe cases of inapparent developmental disorders are being selected. As with the other tests, [1][2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11] questions for children under 6 months old have not been included so that the questionnaire is more cost-effective.…”

Introduction.The administration of the National Screening Test (PruebaNacional de Pesquisa, PRUNAPE), a tool which is effective to screen inapparent developmental disorders in children under 6 years old, requires adequate training, time, space and furniture. A simple questionnaire to help screen large population groups could be useful to identify children at risk. Objective.To evaluate the validity of the PRUNAPE pre-screening questionnaire (cuestionario PRUNAPE pre-pesquisa, CPPP) to identify children at risk of not passing the test. Methods.Fifty seven PRUNAPE milestones were transformed into questions; they were organized in five questionnaires (one for each age group between 6 and 71 months old) with illustrative pictures. The study was performed in Florencio Varela and in the Health Promotion Unit of Hospital de Niños "Ricardo Gutiérrez" in the Autonomous City of Buenos Aires. In a sample of 533 healthy children and their mothers, of a low socioeconomic level, the CPPP was consecutively: a) self-administered by each mother (CPPP-SA), b) by healthcare personnel (CPPP-HP), and finally, c) the PRUNAPE test was administered to each child by qualified professionals. Each step was performed by a different professional in a tripleblind fashion. When choosing the cutoff point, the positive predictive value (PPV) was prioritized to reach the least possible number of false positives. Results.For the CPPP-SA and the CPPP-HP, the overall results were, respectively: Cohen's kappa coefficient: 0.23 and 0.28; sensitivity: 0.41 and 0.42; specificity: 0.81 and 0.85; negative predictive value 0.57 and 0.59; and PPV 0.71 and 0.76. Conclusions.The CPPP is a valid tool to identify children who most require the PRUNAPE to be administered.

“…Por ejemplo, Frankenburg obtuvo una sensibilidad del 0,25% en el que confeccionó para seleccionar a los niños para administrar el test de Denver. [10][11] Si bien la sensibilidad de nuestros cuestionarios no es muy alta, es en promedio ligeramente superior al 0,40. Esto se debe a que los puntos de corte se seleccionaron dándole prioridad al VPP, a los fines de realizar el menor número posible de derivaciones de falsos positivos.…”

“…For this reason all infants were examined by a paediatrician soon after birth and their motor and sensory development was evaluated at 11 months of age by means of the Denver developmental questionnaire. 15 The questionnaires were returned for scoring and any infant in whom the development was questionable was recalled and examined from the developmental point of view by one of us (a specialist paediatrician), using the revised Denver developmental screening test, at approximately one year of age.16…”

The Otago photoscreener is an optical instrument which gives a very sensitive indication of the accuracy with which a subject's eyes are fixing and focusing. Early experience suggested that this instrument could be used effectively to screen for the presence of amblyogenic factors in pre-verbal infants. This communication describes the development of ocular fixation and focusing in 137 normal infants who were followed at regular intervals during the first year of life. Accurate fixation and focusing was found in 13% of three-month-old infants, in 68% of six-month-old infants and in 76% of one year olds. The levels of 'focusing' visual acuity obtained from the photoscreen data are considerably better than the levels of cortical acuity measured by the standard behavioural and electrophysiological methods. This suggests that human infants fix and focus accurately for a considerable period before they are able to perceive all the details obtained in their retinal images.
