Pediatric Physical Therapy Part One Flashcards
what is respiratory distress syndrome
respiratory distress due to atelectasis caused by insufficienct surfactant in premature lungs
what is Piagetian Theory
interaction of environment and neutral maturation results in spiraling of development (with equilibrium and disequilibrium resulting)
how to score each thing on the APGAR
0,1,2
what is meconium aspiration syndrome
in-utero infant inhales meconium and develops respiratory distress
what is motor control
the study of postures and movements, and the parts of the mind and the body that control them
purpose of the Pediatric Evaluation of Disability Inventory
questionnaire of ADLs
renal failure can lead to what electrolyte imbalance
hypermagnesemia
hypermagnesemia is most likely caused by
renal failure
great position for play for premature infants
supported side-lying
what is the Maturationalist Hierarchical Theory
individual genetically and biologically determined
what position should be eliminated for premature infants and provide examples
any activities that increase extensor tone
ex. infant jumpers and walkers
symptoms of hyperkalemia
muscular/cardiac function problems
how far should objects be away from premature infants when playing
9 inches
signs of spina bifida occulta for newborns
dimple
patch of hair
pigmentation visible
what is gestational age
age of fetus/newborn from first day of mother’s last normal menstrual period
primary intervention strategy for NDT
therapeutic handling
what is bronchopulmonary dysplasia
chronic lung disease as a reult of damage to lungs from mechanical ventilationl oxygen administration, and chronic RDS
which electrolyte imbalance produces the patient saying they are super thirsty
hypernatremia
what is the Empiricist Theory
source of human behavior is environment
what age is considered “premature”
under 37 weeks
normal gestational period
38-42 weeks
what directions does motor development occur
cephalocaudal
and
proximal to distal
what population is eligible for Gross Motor Function Measure
CP
Down’s
what does failure to thrive result in
developmental delays
what score on the APGAR is normal
above 7
position of the pelvis for preterm infant
APT
treatment for respiratory distress syndrome
oxygen supplementation
assisted ventilation
surfactant administration
what is failure to thrive
infant lacks adequate nutritional intake
symptoms of hypermagnesemia
hypotension
respiratory depression
what condition is hypercalcemia most associated with
hyperparathyriodism
position of the hips for preterm infant
ABD
extended
in standing, where would preterm infants bear weight
the toes
what is Behaviorist Theory
environmental reinforcement motivates and shapes cognitive and motor behavior
posture of neck and trunk with preterm infant
hyperextended neck and trunk
what color of objects should premature infants play with
black, white, red
compared to a normal-term baby, what won’t a pre-term baby have
physiological flexion
purpose of the Denver Developmental Screening Test
to screen for developmental delay
symptoms of hypercalcemia
constipation
pain
nausea
vomitting
what motions should be promoted for premature infants
shoulder protraction
shoulder ADD
when is the APGAR administered
1, 5, 10 minutes after birth
summary of Neurodevelopmental Treatment (NDT)
active, goal-directed functional movements appropriate for the developmental level of the child
signs of a dislocated hip for newborns
asymmetrical gluteal folds
hip click
what is Interactionist Theory
child is an active social being who contributes to their development
what is provided to the patient prior to exercise for NDT
sensory input
position of shoulders for preterm infant
elevated
ABD
extended
scap retration
what position should premature infants sleep in
supine
what is tested on the APGAR
heart rate
respiration
reflex irritability
muscle tone
color
purpose of the alberta infant motor scale
assesses gross motor milestones in infants from birth through independent walking
