Title
A user friendly implementation for efficiently conducting Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination
Abstract
The aim of this work is to design a semi-automatic application that can be used as an aid by the doctors for smoothly conducting Hammersmith Infant Neurological Examination (HINE). A simplified version of the examination which provides a quantitative neurological assessment is used to design the application. The application includes a methodology of conducting HINE examination suited to inexperienced staff, applicable to both neonatal and post-neonatal infants. It also provides a facility to go through the previous records of a patient that can help in diagnosing patients with high risk of neurological disorder. A semi-automatic approach is proposed for skeleton generation. The application has been installed in hospitals and currently in operation. It is expected to increase the efficiency of conducting HINE using the proposed application.
