Development of a Scale for Evaluation of Neuromotor Development of Infants

Although the scales used so far provide information about the neuromotor progression of a single baby, it is thought that they are not sufficient to distinguish babies from each other, and it is thought that there is no assessment battery that will adapt to the knowledge in their conditions and the functional development of babies. Therefore, the aim of our study is to reveal the applicability and psychometric properties of the Neonatal Infant Motor Assessment Scale (NIMAS) test, which reveals the neurological and motor performance of infants hospitalized in the NICU, both as automatic responses and functional behavior.
