          Abstract

          Introducción: El propósito del estudio fue evaluar la aplicabilidad de un cuestionario de autoreporte para el screening del desarrollo psicomotor (DSM) en atención primaria de salud (APS). Para ello se analizó el grado de acuerdo entre el cuestionario Ages and Stages (ASQ) y la Escala de Evaluación del Desarrollo Psicomotor (EEDP), que es el método empleado de rutina en APS. Además, se exploraron las percepciones y valoraciones comparativas de profesionales que participaron en la aplicación de dichos test. Metodología: Estudio cuanti-cualitativo, realizado entre noviembre 2008 y diciembre 2009. En 2 centros de Salud de la Región Metropolitana de Chile se reclutó lactantes nacidos de término, que acudieron a control sano. A los 8 y 18 meses se les solicitó a los padres o cuidadores principales completar el ASQ y un profesional de APS aplicó el EEDP. Se midió la correlación y concordancia entre ambos test. Se aplicaron entrevistas individuales y mini focus groups a los profesionales participantes en las evaluaciones. Resultados: Fueron reclutados 330 lactantes. La frecuencia de déficit del DSM fue 8,79% en EEDP y 12,73% en ASQ (p0,05). Hubo correlación entre ambas evaluaciones (r 0,5) y la concordancia en la pesquisa de déficit de DSM fue buena (kappa 0.576). En el análisis cualitativo destacó la valoración positiva del ASQ, tanto como instrumento de medición, como guía para promover el DSM. Para suplir las debilidades del ASQ, relacionadas con la modalidad de autoreporte, en grupos de mayor riesgo socio cultural o educacional, los centros de salud adoptaron diferentes estrategias. Conclusiones: El ASQ pesquisó significativamente más déficits del DSM que el EEDP, mientras que la correlación y concordancia entre ambas pruebas fueron adecuadas. Considerando las ventajas comparativas del ASQ en opinión de los profesionales, se propone que los centros de APS que deseen implementar ASQ, tomen una estrategia progresiva basada en la integración de los padres, madres y cuidadores en la observación del desarrollo de sus hijos.

          Introduction: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the applicability of a self-administered questionnaire in the screening of psychomotor development (PD) in a primary care setting (PC). For that purpose, the degree of concordance between the Ages and Stages Questionnaire (ASQ) and a Psychomotor Development Evaluation Scale (Escala de Evaluación del Desarrollo Psicomotor-EEDP) currently utilized in PC was tested. In addition, perceptions and value judgment by professionals who participated in the study were explored. Methodology: This semi-quantitative study was performed between November 2008 and December 2009 in two PC centers of the Metropolitan Area of Chile on full-term newborns of the well-baby clinic. At age 8 and 18 months, parents or primary caretakers were asked to fill out the ASQ, and a PC professional completed the EEDP. Correlation and concordance between both tests was measured. Interviews and mini-focus groups were con-ducted with the participating professionals. Results: Three hundred and thirty newborns were recruited in the study. PD deficits were found on 8.79% of patients through the use of EEDP and in 12.73% through the use of ASQ (p = 0,05). Correlation between both evaluations was acceptable (r 0,5) as was concordance in deficit detection (kappa 0.576). The qualitative analysis showed appreciation of ASQ as a measuring tool as well as promoting awareness of PD. Staff of the PC settings utilized various strategies to overcome deficiencies of a self-administered test in populations of higher socio-educational and cultural risk. Conclusions: ASQ picked up significantly more PM deficits than EEDP, while correlation and concordance indices between both tests were adequate. Considering the subjective advantages expressed by staff in favor of ASQ, it is proposed that those PC centers that wish to implement the ASQ do so by progressively incorporating parents and caretakers into the observation of their children's development.

          Identifying infants and young children with developmental disorders in the medical home: an algorithm for developmental surveillance and screening.

          , , (2006)
          Early identification of developmental disorders is critical to the well-being of children and their families. It is an integral function of the primary care medical home and an appropriate responsibility of all pediatric health care professionals. This statement provides an algorithm as a strategy to support health care professionals in developing a pattern and practice for addressing developmental concerns in children from birth through 3 years of age. The authors recommend that developmental surveillance be incorporated at every well-child preventive care visit. Any concerns raised during surveillance should be promptly addressed with standardized developmental screening tests. In addition, screening tests should be administered regularly at the 9-, 18-, and 30-month visits. (Because the 30-month visit is not yet a part of the preventive care system and is often not reimbursable by third-party payers at this time, developmental screening can be performed at 24 months of age. In addition, because the frequency of regular pediatric visits decreases after 24 months of age, a pediatrician who expects that his or her patients will have difficulty attending a 30-month visit should conduct screening during the 24-month visit.) The early identification of developmental problems should lead to further developmental and medical evaluation, diagnosis, and treatment, including early developmental intervention. Children diagnosed with developmental disorders should be identified as children with special health care needs, and chronic-condition management should be initiated. Identification of a developmental disorder and its underlying etiology may also drive a range of treatment planning, from medical treatment of the child to family planning for his or her parents.

            Revision of a parent-completed development screening tool: Ages and Stages Questionnaires.

            Examined the Ages and Stages Questionnaires (ASQ), a series of 11 developmental questionnaires designed to be completed by parents and caregivers of young children from 4 to 48 months of age. The ASQ were recently revised and additional psychometric data were gathered. Analyses on over 7,000 questionnaires indicated high test-retest reliability, interobserver reliability, and internal consistency. Concurrent validity using standardized measures yielded on overall agreement of 85%, with a range of 76-91%. Specificity was high across questionnaire intervals while sensitivity was lower and varied across intervals. Use of parent-completed screening tools such as the ASQ is attractive in terms of cost-effectiveness, parental involvement, and flexibility in administration procedures.
