K. BROWN, Auteur ; F. VAN RENSBURG, Auteur ; G. WALSH, Auteur ; M. LAKIE, Auteur ; G. W. WRIGHT, Auteur Année de publication : 1987 Article en page(s) : p.287-304 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Twenty-five children with hemiplegic cerebral palsy between the ages of five and 15 years were examined in more detail, using a torque generator motor. A significant reduction in distal power, fatiguability and speed of movement was found on the hemiplegic side. Proximal power was relatively well preserved. Muscle tone, as would be expected, was significantly increased on the affected side and this was demonstrated by a significant rise in measured resonant frequency. Phasic spasticity in response to stretch was found on EMG to be much more common than phasic and tonic combined. Hand function correlated well with the loss of distal power and speed of movement. There was wide individual variation in the relationship between increased muscle tone and hand function. Thixotropy was normal in spastic muscles. Use of the unaffected hand had a marked effect on muscle tone and EMG of the affected side.

Value of intracranial pressure monitoring of asphyxiated newborn infants / Malcolm I. LEVENE in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 29-3 (June 1987)

LEVENE, Auteur ; D. H. EVANS, Auteur ; A. FORDE, Auteur ; L. N. J. ARCHER, Auteur Année de publication : 1987 Article en page(s) : p.311-319 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Twenty-three infants suffering the effects of moderate or severe hypoxic-ischaemic encephalopathy were continuously monitored for intracranial pressure (ICP) by means of a subarachnoid catheter for a total of 1083 hours. Cerebral perfusion pressure (CPP) was also continuously monitored for 21 of the infants. The median age at the start of ICP monitoring was 17 hours, and the opening pressure correlated poorly with maximum sustained pressures. Maximum sustained ICP allowed the infants to be divided into three groups: (1) those with no elevation of ICP (nine), of whom two died and five had a normal outcome; (2) those with sustained rises in ICP which were resistent to treatment (nine), of whom seven died and two survivors are severely handicapped; and (3) those in whom the pressure was elevated but could be controlled medically (five), of whom two survived to be quite normal. No infant with a sustained elevation of ICP of 15mmHg or more survived to be normal, nor any who had had a CPP below 20mmHg for one hour or more. Hypotension was the cause of low CPP in most cases. There was a highly significant correlation between sustained elevation of ICP above 10mmHg and poor outcome, but no correlation between outcome and minimum CPP. It was not possible to predict clinically which infants would develop intracranial hypertension, and some infants with very severe perinatal asphyxia did not develop intracranial hypertension, and some infants with very severe perinatal asphyxia did not develop raised intracranial pressure at any time.

Non-invasive monitoring of intracranial pressure--fact or fancy? / A. M. KAISER in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 29-3 (June 1987)

WHITELAW, Auteur Année de publication : 1987 Article en page(s) : p.320-326 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : Ladd and Wright fontanelle pressure meters were applied to the heads of 18 babies, and simultaneously the intracranial pressure was monitored directly. Increasing the force with which the meters were applied caused a linear increase in registered fontanelle pressure. No universally optimal application force could be determined. To obviate this, application force was increased until the fontanelle pressure was calibrated with directly measured intracranial pressure. Subsequent variations in intracranial pressure were significantly correlated to fontanelle pressure, but not closely enough for clinical reliability. The correlation was similar if the meter was affixed instead directly to the scalp with collodion gel, and the clinical reliability improved. Applanation fontanometers are strongly affected by variations in the method by which they are applied and may not be a reliable reflection of intracranial pressure. If directly affixed to the scalp, however, they may yield clinically useful data.

This study reports a randomized controlled trial of a 'buddy' interaction programme in which gender-matched able-bodied and disabled schoolmates were paired over a three-month period. 43 per cent of the buddy children had a significant improvement in attitudes, compared with 18 per cent of the controls. Buddies also got to know significantly more disabled schoolmates than did the control children. There was a secondary effect on parents, with both fathers and mothers of buddy children having significant improvements in attitude. The implications of these results for the social success of disabled children are discussed.

All the children wore spectacles for the tests: 60 were fitted with lenses which would induce a refractive error, the remainder had glassless frames only. Compared with acuity measures based on the Snellen letters, the pictures needed to be brought much closer than might be expected before the children with induced minor visual errors could recognise them. This highlights the importance of detecting and correcting refractive errors in preschool children who learn from such material, and suggests that the pictures may be a useful tool for detecting children with such errors. 18 pictures, comprising the Sonksen Picture Guide to Visual Function, have now been selected for this purpose.

The prevalence of mental retardation and of learning disabilities were investigated in follow-up studies at eight and 14 years, and these studies identified all mentally retarded children at those ages among the low-scoring or attrition cases at 18 months. Other learning disabilities were reported for 51.2 per cent of low-scoring children, compared with 18.5 per cent of controls.

Relationship between two-year behaviour and neurodevelopmental outcome at five years of very low-birthweight survivors / Jill ASTBURY in Developmental Medicine & Child Neurology, 29-3 (June 1987)

ORGILL, Auteur ; Barbara BAJUK, Auteur Année de publication : 1987 Article en page(s) : p.370-379 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : A prospective five-year follow-up of survivors of very low birthweight (less than or equal to 1500 g) born in 1979 was carried out at the Queen Victoria Medical Centre, Melbourne, between 1980 and 1985. Of the 57 children reported here, 23 had been identified during psychological testing at two years as having an attention deficit disorder (ADD). Although the number with ADD at five years had decreased to 18, the two-year diagnosis was retained to test its predictive value for outcome at school-age. Children with ADD at two years differed significantly from their peers at five years in verbal, performance and full-scale IQ and had significantly more minor physical disabilities. They also had poorer visual acuity, more tremor, poorer balance, and more deviations with arms extended in pronation. The ADD children had more minor, though chronic, physical illnesses such as tonsillitis and serous otitis media. Their mothers expressed greater concern than the other mothers about hearing and behaviour. The ADD children were rated as significantly more aggressive, difficult to manage and less able to cope with frustration. As a predictor of five-year IQ, behaviour at two years was more powerful than social class. ADD discriminated a subgroup of very low-birthweight children whose lower IQ and multiple physical, neurological and behavioural difficulties place them at very high risk of learning disabilities.

Public ISBD [article]  inDevelopmental Medicine & Child Neurology > 29-3 (June 1987) . - p.380-393 Titre : Relationship between newborn stepping and later walking: a new interpretation Type de document : Texte imprimé et/ou numérique Auteurs : Esther THELEN, Auteur ; Deborah Whitley COOKE, Auteur Année de publication : 1987 Article en page(s) : p.380-393 Langues : Anglais (eng) Index. décimale : PER Périodiques Résumé : The relationship between newborn stepping and later walking was examined by means of new kinematic and electromyographic data. Stepping movements of a group of 18 normal infants were compared at one and two months of age, at one and two months before the first independent steps, and at the month when these first steps occurred. Stepping in the first month was characterized by tight synchronization of hip, knee and ankle movements, but as early as two months the ankle-joint began to move out of phase with the hip and knee. Before independent walking a more adult-like pattern continued to emerge, with the knee leading the hip in flexion. However, with the onset of walking, primitive characteristics of newborn stepping remained, including ankle hyperextension at the end of the step, hyperflexion of the hip and knee and excessive muscle activation. These results suggest that mature walking may evolve from the newborn stereotyped movement pattern. It is suggested that these gradual changes in the organization of the step are evoked by the dynamic functional demands of upright locomotion, in addition to balance, postural control and strength development in the first year of life.
