Developmental follow-up of children and young people born preterm

Recommendation ID: NG72/3
Question: Predictive accuracy of the ASQ-3 for children born preterm:- What is the concurrent and predictive accuracy of the parent-completed Ages and Stages Questionnaire, 3rd edition (ASQ-3) for detecting concurrent learning disability (intellectual disability) and motor impairment between the ages of 2 years (corrected) and 4 years (uncorrected) in children born preterm?
Any explanatory notes (if applicable): Why this is important:- The ASQ is widely used to identify children at risk of developmental problems and disorders, and there are many versions of the questionnaire that span the preschool years. If the ASQ-3 was found to have sufficient concurrent and predictive accuracy for detecting learning disability (intellectual disability) and motor impairment between the ages of 2 years (corrected) and 4 years (uncorrected), this developmental check could be considered for use in enhanced developmental
surveillance.
