Study Notes
Pediatric Growth and Development
- Infants (0-1 year): Psychosocial stage is Trust vs. Mistrust. Development depends on meeting needs. Oral stage of psychosexual development, where the mouth is the primary source of pleasure and exploration. Primary need is security. Major conflict is weaning. Cognitive development is sensorimotor, focused on senses and actions. Object permanence is developing. Play is solitary, using tangible objects. Attachment figure is primarily the primary caregiver, often the mother. Fears are centered on strangers.
- Toddlers (1-3 years): Psychosocial stage is Autonomy vs. Shame and Doubt. Toddlers develop more independence and control over their actions. Play is still centered around self-expression but also includes parallel play.
- Preschoolers (3-6 years): Psychosocial stage is Initiative vs. Guilt. Children take initiative in activities and develop a sense of purpose. They begin to explore new things. Cognitive development is preoperational, thinking is very self-centered. Play is very active and imaginative, and involves others. Play is more associative, and social interaction increases.
- School-Age (6-12 years): Psychosocial stage is Industry vs. Inferiority. Learning to engage in tasks and to complete tasks with proficiency is essential at this age. School and peers play a large role in development. Cognitive development is concrete operational. Children can engage in logical reasoning. Play can be competitive and more focused on collaborative skills.
- Adolescents (12-18 years): Psychosocial stage is Identity vs. Role Confusion. Discovering one's sense of self is important at this stage. Role models, peers, and social expectations become significant influences. Cognitive development is formal operational, abstract thinking develops. Play can involve peers and be more competitive or cooperative.
Nutritional Considerations
- Breastfeeding is recommended for at least 2 years. Caloric requirements change through different developmental stages. Healthy eating habits are important for growth.
- Feeding guidelines vary, but for general nutrition: 2,100-2,400 calories per day is a suggested range for children, and reducing consumption of sugary drinks and desserts is a critical piece of the nutritional plan.
Sleep
- Sleep duration varies with the stage of development, from 10-12 hours a day for infancy to 8-10 hours for adolescence. Adequate sleep is vital for both physical and cognitive development.
Safety
- Common accidents for infants and toddler are suffocation, scalding burns, choking hazards, etc. Emphasis is placed on safe environments and prevention measures.
Developmental Indicators and Milestones
- Key milestones include physical, mental, and social development. Developmental milestones are age-specific, but individual differences are expected. This information should not be interpreted as a set of rules but as an overview of normal development.
