2023 Prechtl's General Movement Assessment Basic Course

Research conducted in the last 20 years has shown that the qualitative assessment of spontaneous movement in the fetus, newborn, and young infant is an early and reliable indicator for diagnosis and prognosis of neurological disorders.  Compelling evidence is now available that qualitative assessment of General Movements (GMs) - a specific type of spontaneous movement - under the age of five months is the best predictor of cerebral palsy.  This course fulfills the standards specified by the Generalized Movement Trust (www.general-movements-trust.info).  The course will consist of lessons, demonstration and discussion of video recordings.  Lectures will alternate with exercises in small groups with videos prepared by the tutors.
