To describe the findings of short Hammersmith Neonatal Neurologic examination (HNNE) in preterm small for gestational age (SGA) and appropriate for gestational age (AGA) infants at term equivalent age...
This prospective cohort study was conducted at the high risk follow-up clinic of our center. 52 preterm infants born <35 weeks gestation were examined using HNNE at TEA and followed- up till 4-6 month...
20 infants (38.5%) had warning signs and 9 (17.3%) had abnormal signs on short HNNE. 12 (37.5%) AGA infants and 6 (30%) SGA infants had global score <65 at mean corrected age (SD) of 4.3 (0.7) weeks a...
Early identification of warning signs among SGA infants using Short HNNE screening at TEA can be useful to initiate early intervention. There was no statistically significant difference in global scor...
The ability to use digitally recorded and quantified neurological exam information is important to help healthcare systems deliver better care, in-person and via telehealth, as they compensate for a g...
Recent advancements in large language models (LLMs) have shown potential in a wide array of applications, including health care. While LLMs showed heterogeneous results across specialized medical boar...
To assess the performance of LLMs on neurology board-style examinations....
This cross-sectional study was conducted between May 17 and May 31, 2023. The evaluation utilized a question bank approved by the American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology and was validated with a sm...
Overall percentage scores of 2 LLMs....
LLM 2 significantly outperformed LLM 1 by correctly answering 1662 of 1956 questions (85.0%) vs 1306 questions (66.8%) for LLM 1. Notably, LLM 2's performance was greater than the mean human score of ...
Despite the absence of neurology-specific training, LLM 2 demonstrated commendable performance, whereas LLM 1 performed slightly below the human average. While higher-order cognitive tasks were more c...
Patients with movement disorders such as Parkinson's disease (PD) living in remote and underserved areas often have limited access to specialized healthcare, while the feasibility and reliability of t...
As knowledge about neurological examination findings in autosomal dominant Alzheimer disease (ADAD) is incomplete, we aimed to determine the frequency and significance of neurological examination find...
Frequencies of neurological examination findings were compared between symptomatic mutation carriers and non mutation carriers from the Dominantly Inherited Alzheimer Network (DIAN) to define AD neuro...
AD neurological examination findings included abnormal deep tendon reflexes, gait disturbance, pathological cranial nerve examination findings, tremor, abnormal finger to nose and heel to shin testing...
ADAD features a distinct pattern of neurological examination findings that is useful to estimate prognosis and may inform clinical care and therapeutic trial designs....
The neurological examination of an unwell neonate can aid management, such as deciding if hypothermia treatment is warranted in hypoxic ischaemic encephalopathy or directing investigations in hypotoni...
An explanatory sequential mixed methods approach (QUAN → QUAL) with equal weighting between stages. A survey on attitudes to the neonatal neurological examination was sent to all UK neonatal units and...
One hundred ninety-three surveys were returned, 31.0% from neonatologists, 9.3% paediatric neurologist. The median range for confidence was 4 (IQR3-5). Twenty-three interviews occurred. Thematic analy...
There are barriers preventing paediatricians being able to perform a neurological examination in unwell neonates, and a culture of neurophobia is common. A new standardised examination is needed, alon...
Frequent neurological examinations in patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI) disrupt sleep-wake cycles and potentially contribute to the development of delirium....
To evaluate the risk of delirium among patients with TBI with respect to their neuro-check frequencies....
A retrospective study of patients presenting with TBI at a single level I trauma center between January 2018 and December 2019. The primary exposure was the frequency of neurological examinations (neu...
Of 1552 patients with TBI, 458 (29.5%) patients experienced delirium during their hospital stay. The median time-to-delirium was 1.8 days (IQR: 1.1, 2.9). Kaplan-Meier analysis demonstrated that patie...
Patients with more frequent neuro-checks had a higher risk of developing delirium compared with those with less frequent neuro-checks....
The Hammersmith infant neurological examination (HINE) is a highly predictive tool for the easy and low-cost detection of cerebral palsy. Between 2015 and 2016, the rapid spread of the Zika virus (ZIK...
Bulbar symptoms in amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) are variable, reflecting bulbar and pseudobulbar palsy. The current study sought to characterize the pharyngeal findings in ALS using a fiberopti...
We enrolled ALS patients with bulbar symptoms who were admitted between 2014 and 2020. All participants were evaluated on salivary status, velopharyngeal movement during speech and swallowing, pharyng...
A total of 50 patients (31 men; median age: 69 years) were enrolled. Salivary residue in the hypopharynx was the most common abnormal finding on laryngoscopy (40 patients; 80%). Twenty-three patients ...
The specific findings of laryngoscopy in ALS patients, such as SSD in velopharyngeal closure and laterality in pharyngeal constriction, could not be evaluated by general neurological examination via t...
Traumatic brain injury (TBI) management includes serial neurologic examinations to assess for changes dictating neurosurgical interventions. We hypothesized hourly examinations are overassigned. We co...
A retrospective cohort study of 1022 patients with TBI admitted to a Level 1 trauma center from January 1, 2019, to December 31, 2019, was conducted. Patients with penetrating TBI or immediate or plan...
A total of 830 patients were included, 287 (35%) were assigned hourly (Q1) examinations, and 17 (2%) had unplanned procedures, with 16 of 17 (94%) on Q1 examinations. Patients requiring unplanned proc...
Using a 4-factor algorithm can optimize the assignment of neuro examinations and substantially reduce neuro examination burden without sacrificing patient safety....
