Objective[edit | edit source]
The Alberta Infant Motor Scale (AIMS) is a standardized observational examination tool used to assess the maturation of gross motor skills of infants in the first 18 months post-term. The AIMS was developed as a reference guide for normal development of infants based on the age and sex related norms of 2200 infants in Alberta, Canada. It can be used as a screening tool to detect and track early developmental delays. The tool compares the level of motor development against the expected norms for their age and sex in four categories: prone, supine, sitting and standing.
