Article Synopsis
- - The study focuses on the perspectives of parents and stakeholders regarding the classification of severe neurodevelopmental impairment in children born very preterm, which includes conditions like cerebral palsy, developmental delay, and sensory impairments.
- - Researchers distributed clinical scenarios of 18-month-old children with different impairments and a typically developing child to 827 participants, who rated their health and severity of conditions on a scale from 0 to 10.
- - Findings showed a discrepancy between stakeholder perceptions and current research classifications, with substantial disagreement on what constitutes "severe" neurodevelopmental impairment, suggesting a need for redefinition in alignment with stakeholder views.
