Table 2.
Combination of foot-to-foot contact and fidgety movements and risk of developing cerebral palsy, mild motor impairment, or both.
| Combinations | N | Cerebral palsy | Mild motor impairment | Cerebral palsy or | Typical outcome | Risk of developing CP or mild motor impairment* | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| N (%) | N (%) | mild motor impairment N (%) | N (%) | ||||
| % (95% CI) | OR (95% CI) | ||||||
| Fidgety present, FF present | 14 | 0 (0) | 1 (7.1) | 1 (7.1) | 13 (92.9) | 7% (1.2; 31.5) | Reference |
| Fidgety present, FF absent | 20 | 0 (0) | 3 (15) | 3 (15) | 17 (85) | 15% (5.2; 36.0) | 2.3 (0.21; 24.7) |
| Fidgety absent, FF present | 6 | 0 (0) | 1 (16.7) | 1 (16.7) | 5 (83.3) | 16% (3.0; 56.4) | 2.6 (0.13; 50.0) |
| Fidgety absent, FF absent | 18 | 3 (16.7) | 3 (16.7) | 6 (33.4) | 12 (66.6) | 33% (16.3; 56.3) | 6.5 (0.68; 62.1) |
| Total | 58 | 3 (5.2) | 8 (13.8) | 11 (19.0) | 47 (81) | - | - |
The table shows that the risk of developing CP or mild motor impairment increases when foot-to-foot contact or fidgety is absent, and that it is maximum when both (foot-to-foot contact and fidgety) are absent.
Risk is ratio expressed as percentage.
