Study Notes
Neonates and Infants
- A neonate is from birth to 1 month old, with vital signs (V/S) of RR: 40-60, HR: 140-160, BP: 70 systolic.
- At 1 month, V/S are RR: 30-40, HR: 100-160, BP: 70-90 systolic.
- At 1 year, V/S are RR: 20-30, HR: 100-120, BP: 90 systolic.
- Neonates typically weigh 3-3.5 kg, with their head accounting for 25% of their weight.
- Until 4 weeks, neonates are primarily nose breathers.
- Fontanelles should never be pressed.
- Infants at 2 months track objects, focus on objects 8-12 inches away, recognize faces, display emotions, recognize sounds, and move in response to stimuli.
- Infants at 6 months sit up in a high chair, make one-syllable sounds, raise their upper body when on their stomach, grasp toys, follow moving objects, push down with their legs, and babble.
- Infants at 12 months walk, know their name, sit without assistance, crawl, respond to "no", say "mama" and "dada", use objects, and finger feed themselves.
Toddlers and Preschool-Aged
- Toddlers (1-3 years old) have V/S of RR: 20-30, HR: 80-130, BP: 70-100 systolic.
- Preschool-aged children (3-6 years old) have V/S of RR: 20-30, HR: 80-120, BP: 80-120 systolic.
- Toddlers at 3 years old walk, run, pull and carry things while walking, climb on furniture and stairs, and recognize names and faces.
- Preschool-aged children at 6 years old hop, jump, swing, dress themselves, use forks and spoons, count to 10, and draw.
School-Age
- School-age children are 6-12 years old, with V/S of RR: 20-30, HR: 70-110, BP: 80-120 systolic.
- They identify EMTs as people who can help and may have unrealistic expectations of what EMTs can do.
- Reassure and stay honest with school-age children during assessments.
Adolescents
- Adolescents are 12-18 years old, with V/S of RR: 12-20, HR: 55-105, BP: 100-120 systolic.
- They believe they are invulnerable and may engage in risky behaviors.
- Want to be treated like adults and may benefit from private interviews.
Adulthood
- Early adulthood (20-40 years old) V/S are RR: 16-20, HR: 70, BP: 120/80.
- Middle adulthood (41-60 years old) V/S are RR: 16-20, HR: 70, BP: 120/80.
- Late adulthood (61-120 years old) V/S vary depending on health issues; they often do not want to go to the hospital and may prefer SNF or retirement communities, fighting to keep their independence.
