The relationship between the scarf ratio and subsequent motor performance in infants born preterm

The relationship between the scarf ratio and subsequent motor performance in Thai infants born preterm was the focus of this study. The scarf ratio was measured in 61 infants at 36 and 40 weeks postconceptional age (PCA). At 40 weeks PCA, one-, two-, three-, and four-months adjusted age, the infants...
