Detecting Asymmetry of Upper Limb Activity with Accelerometry in Infants at Risk for Unilateral Spastic Cerebral Palsy

Abstract

AIMS: To examine whether accelerometry can quantitate asymmetry of upper limb activity in infants aged 3-12 months at risk for developing unilateral spastic cerebral palsy (USCP). METHOD: A prospective study was performed in 50 infants with unilateral perinatal brain injury at high risk of developing USCP. Triaxial accelerometers were worn on the ipsilateral and contralesional upper limb during the Hand Assessment for Infants (HAI). Infants …
