Feasibility of a Smartphone Application for Computer-based Movement Analysis During the Fidgety Period of General Movements

Analysis of spontaneous movements in young infants from video recordings is recommended as an
early medical assessment tool for prediction of cerebral palsy in high-risk infants. Such
video recording have previously been performed in follow-up programs at hospitals using semi
standardized video set-ups. The research group behind this study develops a smart-phone
application that makes it possible for parents to video film their infant spontaneous
movements at home, upload and send the video for analysis at the hospital provided by
experts. The objectives of the study are to assess the feasibility of the In-Motion app for
video recording of infant spontaneous movements, upload and send the video to St. Olavs
Hospital in Trondheim, Norway, for assessment, and how parents experience this. 90-120
high-risk infants from Norway, Denmark, Belgium, USA, Great Britain and India will
participate. Parents will record their infant spontaneous movements and answer
questionnaires. Video quality will be evaluated by experts within the field and their use for
computer-based assessment will be evaluated.


Inclusion Criteria:

- Infants referred to high-risk follow-up at the hospital

Exclusion Criteria:

- Unstable medical condition, progressive disorders, or diagnosis with a specific
syndrome affecting motor development.
