(40 cards)
Assessment of premature infant behavior (APIB)
Assesses the organization and balance of infants phsiological, motor, and bx stress
Newborn individualized developmental care and assessment of progress (NIDCAP)
systematic behavioral observation of preterm or full term infant in nursery or home during environmental input, caretaking, and treatments
Note what stresses and consoles the infant
Test of infant motor performance (TIMP)
developed for infants from 32 weeks postconceptual age to 3.5 months postterm
Evaluates spontaneous and elicited movements to analyze postural alignment and selective control for functional movements
Apgar screening test
administered to newborn at 1, 5, 10 minutes after birth
HR, RR, reflex irritability, muscle tone, color - all scored 0, 1, or 2
Apgar screening test - what is good score
score of 7 and above
Babinski reflex
stroke lateral aspect of plantar foot - get extension and fanning of toes
0-12 months
Flexor withdrawal
sharp, quick pressure stimulus to sole of foot or palm of hand causes withdrawal of stimulated extremity
0 -2 months
Crossed extension
sharp, quick pressure stimulation to sole of foot results in withdrawal of stimulated LE and extension of opposite leg
0-2 months
Galant of trunk incurvation reaction
sharp stroke along paravertebral line from scapula to top of iliac crest results in lateral flex toward stimulated side
0-2 months
Moro reflex
sudden extension of neck results in flex, abd of shoulders, ext of elbows - followed by add of shoulder and elbow flex
0-4 months
Primary standing reaction
infant held in supported standing position they will support some weight and extends LE
Primary walking
hold infant in supported standing, tilt trunk forward slightly, reciprocal stepping motions of LE
0-2 months
Neonatal neck righting (NOB)
turn head with infant in supine
body log rolls toward same side
0-6 months
Rooting
Stroking of perioral region results in head turning to that side with mouth opening
0-3 months
Sucking
touch to lips, tongue, palate results in automatic sucking
0-6 m
Startle
loud noise, sudden light or cold stimulus causes a sudden jerking or whole body or ext and abd or UE followed by add of shoulders
0-6 m
Tonic labyrinthine reflex (classic)
prone position results in max flexor tone
supine results in max ext tone
0-6 m
Asymmetrical tonic neck reflex
rotation of the head results in ext of face side extremities and flexion of skull side extremities
0-5 m
Palmar grasp
pressure stimulus against palm results in grasping of object wit slow release
0-4 m
Plantar grasp
pressure stimulus to sole of foot or lowering of feet to floor results in curling of toes
0-9 m
Placing reactions
drag dorsum of foot or back of hand against edge of table, get placing of foot or hand onto table top
0-6 m
Traction of pull to sit
pull infant to sitting from supine - UE flex and head lags until about 4-5 m
Optical and labyrinthine righting
head orients to a vertical position when body is tilted
starts 1 month and continues through life
Protective extension
quick displacement of trunk in downward direction while held or while sitting in forward, sideways or backward direction results in extension of legs downward and ext of arms in seated to catch weight Downward - begins at 4m Sideways - 6m Forward - 7m Backward - 9m
