Abstract
The screening assessment tool of the Dubowitz neonatal neurologic assessment was adapted for preterm infants. The findings identified as "warning signs" in preterm infants were identical to those found in full-term infants, suggesting that this screening tool can also be used in preterm infants at term age.
