Abstract

The aim of the study – a systematic review of available data for early accurate diagnosis of motor disorders. Motor development reflects the pattern of neurological development. Movements progress from primitive, chaotic to freely controlled movements, so childrenʼs competence in motor skills is one of the important indicators of health, because if a child is physically active in early childhood, the likelihood of many chronic diseases in adulthood will be reduced. Diagnosis of motor skills developmental delay in the first year of life is important because it often indicates more general developmental delays or specific disorders such as cerebral palsy. The article analyzed 10 well-known tests for early diagnosis of motor disorders. Early diagnosis of motor disorders allows children to access early intervention in a timely manner.
