Research Abstract |
We conducted a survey by randomly selecting public health nurses(hereafter PHNs) involved in administering the infant medical examination throughout Japan. We obtained responses from 643 PHNs. The most important objective of the infant medical examination as indicated by the PHNs is "for the early detection of slow development "in both the 18-month and 3-year old infants. However, the possibility of detecting developmental disorders through the infant medical examination was 36. 5% in the 18-month old infants and 54. 9% in the 3-year old infants. Half of the PHNs mentioned that it was difficult to screen developmental disorders.
