cephalocaudal developmental principle
development from head to toe
proximal to distal developmental principle
development of midline then extremities
general to specific developmental principle
development of whole body movements before disassociation of extremities
gross to fine developmental principle
development of large movement before small
physiologic flexion
position in which babies are born
antigravity extension
active extension occurs first before flexors
antigravity flexion
progressed as infant spends more time in supine
developmental dysplasia of the hip
poor alignment of the acetabulum and head of femur in the developing hip
torticollis
asymmetric head posture d/t SCM tightness
juvenile rheumatoid arthritis
inflammation of connective tissue in children under 16 y/o
osteogenesis imperfecta
