Title: Growth and Development Yang Fan Pediatric Department


1
  • Growth and Development
  • Yang Fan Pediatric Department

2
Growth defined as an increase in size
of body, biological growth of an organism takes
place through cell multiplication, this
morphological growth can be measured clinically.
3
  • the enlargement of the organ and the system
  • morphological growth
  • can be measured by exact values

4
  • Development
  • A gradual change and expansion advancement from
    a lower to a more advanced stage of complexity
    increased capacity through growth, maturation,
    and learning

5
  • An increase in competence and adaptability
  • A QUALITATIVE change
  • Functioning at a higher level

6
  • Thus, since both processes are part of one
    whole, the combined terms growth and development
    form an unitary concept that indicates the
    quatitative and qualitative of maturational
    changes of an organism.

7
  • Growth is a continuous and orderly PROCESS

  • Variability
  • Not everyone is alike in the way that they grow
  • Percentile growth/ standard deviation to the norm
  • Racial and ethnic differences
  • Boys vs Girls

12
Factors Influencing Growth
  • Heredity
  • Nutrition
  • Gender
  • Disease
  • Environment
  • Hazards
  • Socioeconomic influences

13
Growth Curves
Boys 2 to 18 years
Girls 2 to 18 years
  • Boys reach most of their height at age of 17
    whereas girls reach theirs at around 15

14
Indices of Growth
  • Body weight (kg)
  • the weight of a persons body.
  • the weight of all tissues, organs and body
    fluids.
  • one indicator of the nutritional status of
    child.
  • the basis of drug dosage and amount of infusion.

15
Patterns of Weight Increment
1?The first growth spurt occurs in the first year
of life (the increment is about 6kg).
2?Growth is not at the same rate in different age
The increment of weight during the first 3
months is equal to that of the following 9
months. Yearly increments increase slowly
until the onset of puberty.
16
  • Birth weight 3 kg
  • Mature babys weight gain at first month
    1--1.5kg
  • 312months weight(month?9) /2 kg
  • 16years weight age 2 ?8 kg
  • 712years weight age 7-5 / 2 kg

17
Attention
  • About formulae
  • These formulae are used only for calculating
    dosage of drug and fluid in clinic. Because the
    growth is not at the same rate in different age,
    especially in infant and the growth is affected
    by many factors, such as gene, environment and
    individual variation.

18
  • Weight loss
  • Physiological weight loss 3 - 9

  • recover at 7-10th day
  • Loss of 3 9 of birth weight in the first few
    days of life is considered normal and is common
    for most newborns.

19
Height(cm)
  • The length from vertex to plantae
  • The index of long time nutritional status

20
  • The height for infants up to three years
    should be measured as recumbent length using a
    properly constructed measuring device.
  • Height measurements for children over three
    years of age should be accomplished using
    vertical measuring board or fixed wall device.

  • at birth 50cm

23
Patterns of Length Increment
The first growth spurt occurs in the first year
of life (the increment is about 25cm).
Growth is not at the same rate in different age
The increment of weight during the first 3 months
is equal to that of the following 9 months.
Yearly increments increase slowly until the
onset of puberty.
24
  • Shortness may be caused by malabsorption, chronic
    illness, psychosocial deprivation, hormonal
    disorders, familial patterns, or syndromes with
    dwarfism.
  • Gigantism may be the result of pituitary
    abnormalities.

Crown-rump/Sitting height
They give a measure of the length of the head
and trunk. It is a measurement of the distance
from the highest point on the head to the base
sitting surface.

27
During the first year of life, spinal
increase is faster than extremities. Later on,
the extremities grow at a faster rate than the
trunk, which is contribute to the body length and
leading to a gradually change in relative
proportions.
28
Changes in Overall Body Proportions
29
Head Circumference
HC is a measurement of perimeter of
head,from eyebrows to occipital prominence. The
change of the HC is related with the growth of
brain and skull.
30
  • At birth 34 cm
  • 1 year 46cm
  • 2 years 48 cm
  • 5 years 50cm
  • 15 years 54cm (the same
    as adult)

31
  • Head circumference should be measured with a
    tape measure at each visit during the first two
    years of life.
  • A large head may be an early sign of
    hydrocephalus or an intracranial mass.
  • A small head may be a result of early closure
    of sutures or lack of brain development.

32
  • chest circumference
  • reprent the growth of thorax and lung
  • at birth CClt HC 1- 2 cm
  • 1 year CC HC
  • gt1year CC - HC (cm) age - 1

33
Growth on Puberty
  • At puberty, there is a marked growth spurt(The
    second peak of height velocity,PHV), that is, a
    very rapid increase in size and weight.

34
  • Girls usually showing their pubertal growth spurt
    around age 911.
  • For boys the same process begins at apx. age
    1113.
  • According to Tanner (1990), girls finish pubertal
    growth by about age 16 whereas boys continue to
    grow until approximately 18 years of age.

40
Bone development
Osteite (center of ossification), which is
located near ends of long bones (epiphyses), with
growth plates. It is very important for bones
growth in length.
41
The sequence of appearance of secondary centers
42
Bone age
Bone age is that the age should be according
to the osteite number for normal child. The most
commonly used standards are those of Gruelich and
Pyle, which require radiographs of the left hand
and wrist knee films are sometimes added for
younger children(usually less than 1 year old).
43
Abnormality of Bone Age
Retardation of BA
Hypothyoidism, Hypopituism
Adrenogenital syndrome, Precocity
Precocity of BA
44
Dentition
  • Primary teeth
  • Primary teeth are 20 totally.
  • The first eruption is at about 6 months(410
    months) .
  • The timing of tooth eruption is more variable
    than other developmental parameters

45
Primary teeth
  • Delayed eruption is usually considered when there
    are no teeth by approximately 12 months of age.
  • The last eruption of primary teeth is at 22.5
    years of age.

Evaluation of growth
  • Growth level
  • Growth velocity
  • Proportion

49
Evaluation of growth
  • Reliable and accurate data
  • Single Value and series investigation
  • reference

50
Choosing reference
Reference, based on a North American
population by NCHS, USA, is recommended by the
WHO as the international standard of growth.
51
Choosing reference
Besides,there are many local or national
references,for example, physical growth indices
of 9 cities in China.
52
Methods of assessment
  • Reference table
  • Growth curve

53
Growth Curves

Girls 2 to 18 years
  • Boys reach most of their height at age of 17
    whereas girls reach theirs at around 15

Growth level
Every single measurement can be plotted on a
growth curve which illustrates the amount of
growth in children within different age group.

Growth velocity
Growth velocity can show the process of
growth. Growth velocity is measured in terms of
how much a child grows within a specified period
of time.

Audition

Audition is important because it relates
language development. If a child has hearing
loss, the child will have impaired speech,
language and learning and behavioural problems
stemming from difficulty in communication.
65
Newborns prefer sweet tastes over sour, bitter,
and salty tastes. They can distinguish odors
right from birth and soon learn to know the smell
of their mothers milk and bodies.

Developmental Surveillance
  • Periodic assessment of a childs developmental
    progress with the aim of detecting
    pre-symptomatic disability

72
  • Longitudinal and multidimensional developmental
    monitoring.
  • Over-reliance on isolated developmental scales
    and tests should be avoided.

73
  • Screening tests Screening procedures should be
    brief, simple, cheap and reliable
  • Diagnostic tests

74
What do we look for in developmental screening?
  • Normal growth pattern
  • Height, weight, head circumference
  • Achievement of developmental milestones(indicatin
    g neurological development)
  • Gross motor function
  • Fine motor function and vision
  • Hearing and speech
  • Social behaviour and play

75
Screening tests
  • Pediatric periodic health supervision
  • Standardized developmental screening instruments
  • Not diagnostic
  • when abnormal, diagnostic evaluation should be
    done

76
  • DDST
  • children under 6 yrs
  • PPVT
  • from 4 to 9yrs
  • especially for children delayed in language

77
Diagnostic tests
  • Gesells test
  • from 4 weeks to 3yrs
  • Bayley from 2 to 30 months
  • WPPSI from 4 to 6.5yrs
  • WISC-R from 6-to 16yrs
