Typical Development Milestones
Walking Independently
What is 10-15 months (will also accept 18 mo)
Stimulus: loud noise
Response: shoulder extension & abduction with elbow and finger extension moving to shoulder flexion & adduction with UE flexion
what is startle reflex
screening tool which calculates body weight divided by height squared
What is BMI
rotation of head to opposite side & flexion of head on same side
What is the action of the sternocleidomastoid muscle (main culprit in CMT)
before 37 weeks
premature birth
What is ~6 months
Stimulus: sight of object or object contact with palm
Response: grasping with inability to release object
What is Palmar/instinctive grasp reflex
Epidemic seen in the United States related to poor nutritional intake and decreased physical activity
What is childhood obesity
90 to 110, 65 to 75
normal ROM values of rotation and lateral flexion for infant
alveolar collapse due to low surfactant
What is respiratory distress syndrome (RDS)
Rolling prone to supine SEGMENTALLY
What is 4 to 6 months
Stimulus: rotate neutral neck
Response: extension of ipsilateral limbs especially UE; possible flexion of contralateral limbs
what is asymmetrical tonic neck reflex (ATNR)
Slippage of the femoral neck up and forward
What is slipped capital femoral epiphysis (SCFE)
tool used to measure neck ROM as a halo and necklace
what is an arthrodial protractor using nose as mid-point, halo to measure lateral flexion & necklace to measure rotation
leading cause of CP
What is periventricular leukomalacia (PVL)
Quadruped
what is 7 to 9 months
Stimulus: prone
Response: decreased extensor tone, increased flexor tone
physical education test used assess fitness, formerly known as Presidential Youth Fitness Program
What is FITNESSGRAM
palpable nodule/mass/tumor noted & (+) SCM contracture/tightness
what is SCM Nodule or SCM Tumor (SMT), most severe form of CMT
acute inflammatory disease of the bowl leading to decreased blood flow to intestine, mucosal lining death increased gas forming bacteria and ultimately pneumatosis intestinalis
What is Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC)
Walks up stairs with help or handrail
What is 16 - 20 months
Stimulus: rotation of trunk
Response: flexion of ipsilateral UE & contralateral LE; extension of contralateral UE & ipsilateral LE
What is tonic LUMBAR reflex
FITTE principles
what is frequency, intensity, time, type and enjoyment
◦ipsilateral ear displaced POSTERIORLY & occipitomastoid bossing
◦contralateral frontal bossing
What is unilambdoid synostosis
Fluctuating muscle tone; Flaccidity of trunk, extremities & face; Hypertonicity of trunk & extremities; Frantic diffuse activity
