This program uses
a one-on-one teaching approach that
reinforces the practice of various
skills. The goal is to get the child
close to normal developmental
functioning.

ATTENTION DEFICIT
HYPERACTIVITY DISORDER
57
is a neurodevelopmental disorder
characterized by persistent patterns
of inattention, hyperactivity, and
impulsivity that significantly impact
daily functioning.

. It is one of the
most common behavioral disorders
affecting children and symptoms
often persist into adolescence and
adulthood.

recommends that
healthcare providers ask parents,
teachers, and other adults who care
for the child about the child's
behavior in different settings, like at
home, school, or with peers to
diagnose it as ADHD.

Pediatrics (AAP)

were present for the past 6
months, the person is
diagnosed with this type of
ADHD.

details
- has trouble holding attention
on tasks

spoken to directly
- doesn't follow instructions
and fails to finish tasks
- avoids to do tasks that require
mental effort over a long
period of time
- loses things necessary for
tasks and activities
- forgetful in daily activities.

66
fidgets with or taps hands or
feet, or squirms in seat.
- leaves seat in situations when
remaining seated is expected.
- runs about or climbs in
situations where it is not
appropriate.
- unable to play or take part in
leisure activities quietly.
- "on the go" acting as if
"driven by a motor".
- talks excessively.

Hyperactivity
67
- fidgets with or taps hands or
feet, or squirms in seat.
- leaves seat in situations when
remaining seated is expected.
- runs about or climbs in
situations where it is not
appropriate
impulsivity
68
has
become a second-line and, in
some cases, first-line
treatment in children and
adults with ADHD because
of its efficacy and
classification as a nonstimulan
Atomoxetine (Strattera)
69
have been
found effective in numerous
studies in children with
ADHD; however, because of
potential adverse effects, they
are rarely used for this
purpose.
Tricyclic antidepressants
70
has
recent placebo-controlled
data supporting efficacy in
children with ADHD; this
medication may currenty be
used as a third or fourth line
treatment
Modafinil (Provigil)
71
s is not a simple curve to one
side but, in fact, is a more complex three-dimensional deformity that
often develops childhood
Scoliosis
72
is used
specifically to describe scoliosis that
occurs in children younger than 3
years.
term infantile scoliosis
73
what type of scoliosis (4-9 years)
juvenile
scoliosis
74
(10-18 years) type of scioliosis
adolescent
scoliosis
75
is a lateral curvature of the
spine. (postural)
Scoliosis
76
scoliosis occurs in two forms
structural and
functional
77
TYPES OF SCOLIOSIS
Functional scoliosis
Structural scoliosis
Idiopathic structural scoliosis
78
It is a curvature due to a
problem that does not involve
the spine, such as having legs
that are different lengths or
muscle spasms caused by
pain. These can cause to lean
to the side, creating the
appearance of scoliosis.
Functional scoliosis
79
The curvature is flexible and
will go away if the problem
that causes to lean to the side
goes away
Functional scoliosis
80
The spine curvature is not
flexible and does not go away
with a change in position.
- There is no evidence that
functional scoliosis will lead
to structural scoliosis.
- Associated with other
conditions
Structural scoliosis
81
In about two out of every 10
cases, children with structural
scoliosis also have one of
these Conditions:
● Born with vertebrae
that do not develop
normally (congenital
scoliosis)
● An underlying
problem in the brain
or spinal cord. such as
a cyst or a tumor.
● A problem with
nerves or muscles,
such as cerebral palsy
or muscular
dystrophy
Structural scoliosis
82
80% of children with
structural scoliosis
Idiopathic structural scoliosis
83
is seen in
school-age children at 10 years of
age and older.
Idiopathic scoliosis
84
may be used as an alternative
to bracing for the child with a
mild to moderate curvature;
Electrical stimulation
85
when the child is asleep,
electrodes are applied to the
skin; the leads are placed to
stimulate muscles on the
convex side of the curvature
to contract as impulses are
transmitted; this cause the
spine to straighten
Electrical stimulation
86
goal is to prevent progression
of the curve and to improve
alignment
Brace management
87
necessary in moderate-tosevere scoliosis because the
reported frequency of neural
axis abnormalities associated
with scoliosis has been high
(21-50% in some sources)
Magnetic resonance imaging
(MRI)
88
to help maintain flexibility in
the spine and prevent muscle
atrophy during prolonged
bracing by strengthening
back muscles
Exercise therapy has been promoted
89
e is more
commonly used to treat
scoliosis; , except
during bathing and
swimming; its fit is
monitored closely; it is worn
over a T-shirt or undershirt to
protect the skin
The Boston brace or the
TLSO brace
90
can be
performed for children with
further growth potential; in
these patients, a growing rod
is used, which is associated
with fewer complications
than surgical fixation using
L-rods.
pedicle
screw instrumentation
91
When a child has a severe
spinal curvature or cervical
instability, a form of traction
known as halo traction may
be used to reduce spinal
curves and straighten the
spine.
Halo traction
92
without fusion
is preferable until combined
posterior and anterior fusion
can be done; growing-rod
systems
Growing rods
93
may be
utilized to prevent curve
progression; extensions are
needed every 6 months to
keep pace with the child's
growth until the child has
adequate trunk length, which
is usually between the ages of
11 and 15 years.
growing-rod
systems (eg, pediatric Isola
instrumentation)
94
the plaster jacket is
applied around the trunk, with care
taken to ensure that there is enough room for hip movement by stopping
just below the level of the iliac
wings; superiorly the plaster goes
around the axillae, leaving the arms
and the shoulders free
; the plaster jacket
95
consists of
screws with washers that are
applied from posterior to
anterior, horizontal to the
frontal plane of the vertebral
body, and parallel to the apex
of the curvature.
