Abstract

【Objective】 To study the motor development in children with developmental coordination disorder(DCD) during their infant and toddler's age in order to help early diagnose of DCD. 【Methods】 Movement Assessment Battery for Children(M-ABC) was used to pick up 117 children with DCD in 8 kindergartens in Suzhou city as DCD group, and 351 children were randomly selected in normal children as the control group. The children's health questionnaire and the developmental family questionnaire were filled by all the families, and the results were analyzed by univariate and multivariable unconditional logistic regression model. 【Results】 When children's gender and age were adjusted, the beginning time of independent sit and walk in DCD children was later than 8 months old(aOR=2.737,95%CI 1.007, 7.440), and 15 months old (aOR=2.632,95%CI 1.153, 6.005) respectively. 【Conclusions】 The postpone of independent sit and walk in infant and toddler's age may play an important role in early diagnose of DCD.
