The Clinical Linguistic and Auditory Milestone Scale (CLAMS). Identification of cognitive defects in motor-delayed children
A. J. Capute, B. K. Shapiro, R. C. Wachtel, V. A. Gunther and F. B. Palmer
The Clinical Linguistic and Auditory Milestone Scale (CLAMS) and Bayley
Scales of Infant Development (BSID) were independently administered to 43
children with mild-to-moderate motor delay at 15, 21, and 27 months of age.
Highly significant correlations were noted for each examination. Sex, race,
and age at time of examination did not significantly influence the
relationship between a CLAMS quotient and a Bayley ratio quotient (BRQ). On
the first examination gestational age exerted an effect that carried over
to the total population. The initial CLAMS quotient also correlated with
the results of the CLAMS and BSID administered 12 months later. The CLAMS
identified children with a delayed BRQ (less than 70) as follows:
sensitivity, 0.66; specificity, 0.79; predictive value of a positive test,
0.80; and predictive value of a negative test, 0.65. The CLAMS provides the
pediatrician with a language assessment instrument that adequately detects
cognitive deficits in motor-delayed children.
