  • Title: Spanish Validation of the Premie-Neuro Scale in Premature Infants.
    Author: Fernández D, Alvarez MJ, Rodríguez D, Rodríguez M, Fernández E, Urdiales P.
    Journal: J Pediatr Nurs; 2015; 30(4):560-7. PubMed ID: 25433214.
    Abstract:
    This study was an observational cross-validation of a Spanish version of the Premie-Neuro, a neurological examination for preterm infants. A cross-cultural translation was used to generate a Spanish version of the scale. The results showed an internal consistency of 0.72 according to Cronbach's alpha coefficient. The intra-class coefficient of correlation for the overall scores was 0.78. Factor analysis provided evidence of construct validity. The Spanish version of the Premie-Neuro was found to be a reliable and valid instrument for evaluating neurological and physical statements for premature infants admitted to a neonatal intensive care unit.
