Study Notes
Assessment of Growth and Development
- Head circumference is used to assess the growth of the brain.
- Height for children between 2-12 years of age is measured using the formula: stature = Recumbent Length (RL) + 0.7 cm.
- Skinfold thickness is used to assess malnutrition.
Measuring Height
- For children under 2 years of age, height is measured using the formula: stature = Recumbent Length (RL) + 0.7 cm.
- The correct method to measure height for children under 2 years of age is using the recumbent length.
Fetal Growth
- During the 2nd week of fetal growth, the embryoblast layer is formed.
- At the 8th week of fetal growth, the fetus measures approximately 2.5 cm.
- The hormone responsible for surfactant production starting at the 24th week of fetal growth is cortisol.
- At the 28th week of fetal growth, the fetus weighs approximately 1 kg.
- At the 39th week of fetal growth, the fetus measures approximately 50 cm.
Dental Development
- The correct order of deciduous dentition eruption is: lower central incisors, upper central incisors, lower lateral incisors, upper lateral incisors, canines, and finally, molars.
- The correct order of permanent dentition eruption is: 1st molars, central incisors, lateral incisors, canines, 2nd molars, and finally, 3rd molars.
General Growth and Development
- Growth in children is influenced by age and sex.
- Body proportions in children change with age and sex.
- Weight changes in newborns: they lose weight in the first few days after birth and then gain weight.
- Genetic factors do not affect growth.
