Transitorische neurologische Befunde bei Risikokindern im ersten Lebensjahr

Abstract

During the first year of life many infants born "at risk" present neurological findings, which vanish by the end of the first year. These neurological symptoms are found by using a neurological examination, which employs the principles of Prechtl 's neurological examination of the newborn. Using this kind of neurological examination, the neurology of transitory findings was studied in 40 infants "at risk" during their first year of life. Only infants "at risk" were selected, who presented finally normal psychomotor development at the end of the first year of life.
