Study Notes
Parenting Styles
- Dictatorial/Authoritarian: Strict, controlling parents with rigid rules (e.g., no TV on school nights).
- Permissive: Laid-back parents who allow children to set rules and participate in decision-making (e.g., child decides if they can watch TV).
- Democratic/Authoritative: Balanced approach with set rules explained to the child; uses negative reinforcement for rule deviations (e.g., limited TV time if homework is completed).
- Passive Parents: Indifferent and uninvolved; do not consult or engage emotionally with children.
Physical Assessment Findings
- Pediatric vital signs differ from adults, except for blood pressure.
- Normal temperature: 99.9°F for a one-year-old; reaches normal (98.6°F) by age 5.
- Pulse rate: 80-180 bpm for infants; Respiratory rate: 30-35 breaths per minute.
- Infant blood pressure: Systolic 65-80 mmHg; Diastolic 40-50 mmHg.
- Fontanels: Should be flat and soft; posterior fontanel closes 6-8 weeks, anterior fontanel closes 12-18 months.
- By one year, infants typically have 6-8 teeth; ultimately, they will have 20 deciduous teeth and 32 permanent teeth.
Reflexes
- Moro Reflex: Birth to 4 months; arms and legs extend symmetrically when head/trunk falls backwards.
- Rooting Reflex: Birth to 4 months; turning head toward stimulus on cheek/edge of mouth.
- Palmar Grasp Reflex: Birth to 3 months; infant grasps an object placed in palm.
- Plantar Reflex: Birth to 8 months; toes curl down when sole of foot is touched.
- Startle Reflex: Birth to 4 months; loud noise causes arms to abduct and hands to clench.
- Tonic Neck Reflex: Birth to 3-4 months; extending arm and leg on side toward which head is turned.
- Babinski Reflex: Birth to 1 year; stroking sole causes toes to fan upward and outward.
- Stepping Reflex: Birth to 4 weeks; infant makes stepping movements when feet touch surface.
Cranial Nerves
- CN I: Olfactory (smell)
- CN II: Optic (vision)
- CN III: Oculomotor (eye movement)
- CN IV: Trochlear (down and inward eye movement)
- CN V: Trigeminal (facial sensation)
- CN VI: Abducens (lateral eye movement)
- CN VII: Facial (facial symmetry and movement)
- CN VIII: Vestibulocochlear (hearing)
- CN IX: Glossopharyngeal (gag reflex)
- CN X: Vagus (swallowing)
- CN XI: Spinal Accessory (shoulder movement)
- CN XII: Hypoglossal (tongue movement)
Physical Development
- Infant weight doubles by 6 months and triples by 1 year.
- Growth: 2.5 cm (1 inch) monthly for the first 6 months; length increases by 50% by 12 months.
- First teeth usually erupt between 6-10 months.
Gross and Fine Motor Skills by Age
- 1 month: Head lag; strong grasp.
- 2 months: Lifts head when prone; open hand position.
