212: Primitive reflexes

        Help!  

Question
Answer
reflex integration   a movement-based program that helps improve the neurological foundations of sensory-motor development, and the linking up of the brain, using the gentle developmental movements that every baby and infant should learn to make.  
🗑
non-integrated reflexes   - A reflex that outstays its welcome  
🗑
what might an unintegrated reflex signal?   - unintegrated reflex may signal that baby's CNS is damaged, - may also show that this system hasn't taken over sufficiently for the reflex to become a voluntary motor movement.  
🗑
crossed extension reflex stimulus   Pressure to sole of the foot w/LE held in extension. Test both LE  
🗑
crossed extension reflex response   Flexion, ADD, and then extension of the contralateral LE  
🗑
when should crossed extension reflex integrate?   1-2 months  
🗑
flexor withdrawal stimulus   Noxious stimuli (pin prick or pinch) to the sole of the foot  
🗑
flexor withdrawal response   Withdrawal of stimulated leg. Test both LE  
🗑
when should flexor withdrawal integrate   1-2 months  
🗑
galant reflex stimulus   Gently stroke along paraspinals on one side  
🗑
Galant Reflex Response   Lateral trunk flexion on the same side as the stimulus  
🗑
when should Galant reflex integrate   2-3 months  
🗑
proprioceptive placing reflex stimulus   Pressure to the dorsum of foot/hand, press on edge of a table  
🗑
proprioceptive placing reflex response   Flexion of the extremity above the stimulus followed by extension to maintain position.  
🗑
when should proprioceptive placing reflex integrate?   2 months  
🗑
neonatal positive support reflex stimulus   Firm pressure to the sole of the foot  
🗑
neonatal positive support reflex response   Co-contraction of LE flexors and extensors, full weight bearing, extended hips & knees  
🗑
when should neonatal positive support reflex integrate   2 months  
🗑
suck-swallow reflex   placing a finger in infants mouth should result in rhythmical sucking  
🗑
when should suck-swallow reflex integrate?   2-5 months  
🗑
rooting reflex stimulus   brush finger along side of face, lips to cheek  
🗑
rooting reflex response   turning head to same side with mouth open  
🗑
when should rooting reflex integrate   3 months  
🗑
ATNR stimulus   Turn head slowly to one side and hold with the jaw over the shoulder  
🗑
ATNR response   Arm on jaw side extend, arm on skull side flex  
🗑
when does ATNR (asymmetrical tonic neck reflex) begin   birth-2 months  
🗑
When does ATNR integrate?   4-6 months  
🗑
palmar grasp reflex   placing index finger into infants hand from ulnar side causes flexion of fingers around examiners finger  
🗑
when does palmar grasp reflex begin   birth-2 months  
🗑
when does palmar grasp reflex integrate   4-7 months  
🗑
moro reflex stimulus   From supported position allow head to drop 20-30 degrees, stretching neck muscles  
🗑
moro reflex response   ABD of UE with extension of elbows, wrists and fingers followed by ADD, flexion & cry  
🗑
When does the moro reflex integrate?   5-6 months  
🗑
Tonic Labyrinthine Reflex   place baby in prone or supine, prone positioning will cause flexor tone, supine positioning will cause extensor tone  
🗑
when does tonic labyrinthine reflex integrate?   6 months  
🗑
Plantar Grasp Reflex   pressure applied to ball of foot under toes causes flexion of toes around examiners finger  
🗑
when does plantar grasp reflex integrate?   9 months  
🗑
STNR (symmetrical tonic neck reflex) stimulus   Examiner passively flexes and extends the head and neck  
🗑
STNR response   Flexion of the head and neck cause UE flexion and LE extension. Extension of head and neck cause UE extension and LE flexion  
🗑
when does STNR reflex appear   4-6 months  
🗑
When does the STNR reflex integrate?   8-12 months  
🗑
landau reflex   holding baby in prone suspension will result in Progressive extension starting with the neck, then back, then hips  
🗑
When does the landau reflex appear?   4 months  
🗑
When does the Landau reflex integrate?   18 months  
🗑
