To determine whether asymmetry scores derived from the Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination (HINE) can provide cut-off scores for recommending in-depth assessment of upper extremity functional deficits by therapists using the Hand Assessment for Infants (HAI). Observational study in a clinical laboratory with the HINE and the HAI administered concurrently to 101 infants 3-12 months corrected age developing typically or atypically. Predictive value of HINE asymmetry scores for atypical HAI was determined. Total HINE asymmetry score ≥4 had 100% sensitivity and ≥88% specificity for identifying infants with an asymmetric HAI score of ≥3 point difference between hands. For infants receiving a total HINE asymmetry score of 4 or greater, referral to therapists for HAI assessment may be beneficial to precisely evaluate function and determine the need for targeted upper extremity interventions.
