Sexual Maturity Rating

tool used to categorize genital development
- the appearance of pubic hair precedes axillary hair by 1 year

SMR 1: pre-puberty
SMR 2: pubic hair is sparse, fine, non pigmented, and downy; male genitalia development begins
SMR 3: pubic hair is pigmented and curly, increases in amount
SMR 4: pubis hair is adult in texture but limited in area
SMR 5: adult maturity

first sign of puberty in girls

measurable: height spurt
conspicuous: breast buds (8-11 y/o)

height spurt correlates more closely with breast development stages than pubic hair

firs sign of puberty in boys

scrotal and testicular growth

boys: mid puberty signs

axillary hair
depended voice
chest hair

puberty growth spurts

girls peak 11.5-12 y/o
boys peak 13.5-14 y/o

happens in girls 2 years before boys
lasts about 2-4 years, longer in boys than girls

psychosocial development:
early adolescence
(10-13 y/o)

Rapid growth and secondary sex characteristics.

Feel more comfortable with
same sex.

Think concretely and don’t think about the future.

Vague and unrealistic professional goals.

psychosocial development:
middle adolescence
(14-16 y/o)

Become more comfortable with their bodies.

Mood swings are typical.

Formal operations and abstract thinking.

They think the world can change by just thinking about it.

Sexually active and don’t think they need to use
contraception.

Self-centered at times.
Different self-images.

They want to be independent and autonomous

psychosocial development:
lte adolescence
(>17 y/o)

Becomes less self-centered and cares for others.

Dating becomes more
intimate.

By 10th grade, 40% have had sex and by 12th grade, 62% have had
sex.

Abstract thinking and plan for the future.

Period of idealism.

Scoliosis: categories

- Idiopathic (no definite cause. most common) - congenital - neuromuscular - syndromatic

Scoliosis: when seen

- during adolescent growth spurt - usually develops 8-10 y/o girls: 10-18 y/o usually 10-12 y/o

Cobb Angle

measurement for quantifying spine curvature in Scoliosis - maximum distance degree of side-to-side curvature - measured on standing PA of XR of spine

Scoliosis Screening

girls: 10 and 12 boys: 13 or 14

severe scoliosis impairments

lung and heart function, usually if curve >35%

Scoliosis: classification

thoracic or lumbar

Kyphosis

exaggerated front-to-back forward rounding curve of upper thoracic spine - more common in older women - congenital or trauma, degenerative/developmental abnormalities - most common cause r/t failure of segmentation or formation

Osgood-Schlatter

- caused by the recurrent traction on the tibial tubercle apophysis (growth plate) that occurs in jumping and running sports. Fragmentation and microfractures of the tibial tubercle occur during its time of rapid growth. - The condition occurs in the pre-teen and adolescent years and is most common in boys aged 12–15 years and girls aged 11–13 years. - Pain is localized to the tibial tubercle and is aggravated by activities using eccentric quadriceps muscle movement. The pain can become so severe that routine activity must be curtailed. Radiographs typically demonstrate fragmentation or irregular ossification of the tibial tubercle.

Enuresis

must be >5 y/o repeated urination in daytime clothing to bed at night - more common in boys

Encopresis

must be >4 y/o | repeated passage of stool into inappropriate places usually r/t constipation

1st line treatment for pediatric insomnia

sleep hygiene education and cognitive behavioral therapy

BEARS pneumonic

``` used to screen for sleep problems: Bedtime resistance Excessive daytime sleepiness Awakening during night Regularity and duration of sleep Sleep disordered breathing ```

ADD triad of symptoms

impulsivity inattentive combined

Inattention type ADHD can occur with ??

Obstructive sleep apnea

criteria for ADD diagnosis

(1) Six (or more) of the following symptoms have persisted for at least 6 months to a degree that is inconsistent with developmental level and that negatively impacts directly on social and academic/occupational activities. (2) Several inattentive or hyperactive-impulsive symptoms were present prior to age 12 years. (3) Several inattentive or hyperactive-impulsive symptoms are present in two or more settings (eg, at home, school, or work; with friends or relatives; in other activities). (4) There is clear evidence that the symptoms interfere with, or reduce the quality of, social, academic, or occupational functioning. (5) The symptoms do not occur exclusively during the course of schizophrenia or another psychotic disorder and are not better explained by another mental disorder (eg, mood disorder, anxiety disorder, dissociative disorder, personality disorder, substance intoxication or withdrawal).

Autism levels

general developmental levels are determined by severity: Level I - required support Level II - requires substantial support Level III - requires very substantial support

What must apply to have a Intellectual Disorder diagnosis?

Adaptive function: ability to function in his/her environment, predict level of independence in daily living skills Cognitive testing: tend to predict academic success Both must be >2 standard deviations below mean AND IQ <70 (69 or less)

Overweight BMI

25-29.9%

Obese BMI

>30

Weight Percentile Categories

Underweight: <5% Healthy 5-85% Overweight 85-95% Obese > 95%

Depression Screening

>12 y/o | PHQ2

Substance Abuse Screening

>11 y/o CRAFFT BSTAD and S2BI
