Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame
1. Longitudinal motor development: comparison of the total score and subscale scores of the m-ABC with previous m-ABC results at 5.5 and 8 years of age. 2. Fitness has no composite outcome measure. However, reference values **do exist for the individual components relating to fitness (endurance, muscle strength, aerobic and anaerobic capacity).	—

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
1. Can we predict physical fitness at the age of 10-12 years based on previous follow-up assessments. Are there neonatal predictors (gestational age; birth weight; gender, etc.)? 2. Approximately 25% of preterm infants have a total m-ABC score	—
