Objective[edit | edit source]
Infant Neurological International battery ( INFANIB) is the outcome tool used for the assessment of neuromotor development in infants aged 0-18 months.It was established by Ellison et al. in 1985.[1] The original INFANIB was a 20-item battery with five factors; Spasticity, Vestibular Function, Head and Trunk, French Angles and Legs. It consist of assessment of posture, extremity and axial tone, primitive reflexes, and postural reaction.[1][2] It is the simple, time saving and easy to learn.
It help in
- As first year of infant's life is critical period for brain development due to brain plasticity thus helps in early identification and intervention of neuromotor abnormalities.[2]
- Normal INFANIB can be used as to reassure parents of risk infants.[3]
- It can be used to compare the neuromotor assessment of infant both in infants (example: birth) and later variables ( cerebral palsy, cognitive function, school performances)[2]
Intended Population[edit | edit source]
Neonate and Infant aged 1-18 months.
High risk infants with premature deliveries, low birth weight, intrauterine growth retardation, birth asphysia, intraventricular hemorrage, respiratory distress, congenital heart diseases,[1]
Method of Use[edit | edit source]
it is a observational scale to assess all neuromotor status done by medical professionals. [4]
Here is the scoring sheet for INFANIB.[1]
Psychometric Properties[edit | edit source]
Reliability[edit | edit source]
sensitivity - 90%
specificity- 83%
positive predictive value- 79%
negative predictive value- 93%
intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC)- 0.90
