Sensitivity and specificity of general movements assessment for detecting cerebral palsy in an Australian context: 2-year outcomes.

Aim: We previously reported sensitivity and specificity levels of the general movements assessment (GMA) to detect cerebral palsy (CP) at 1 year within a clinical setting and with the assistance of the New South Wales (NSW) Rater Network. The aim of this study was to determine whether similarly high levels of validity could be maintained in the same group at 2 years.

Methods: A prospective longitudinal cross-sectional study was conducted.

Sensitivity and specificity of General Movements Assessment for diagnostic accuracy of detecting cerebral palsy early in an Australian context.

Aim: The aim of this study was to calculate the sensitivity and specificity of the General Movements Assessment (GMA) for estimating diagnostic accuracy in detecting cerebral palsy (CP) in an Australian context by a newly established NSW rater network.

Methods: A prospective longitudinal cross-sectional study was conducted. The GMA was blind-rated from conventional video by two independent certified raters, blinded to medical history.
