I searched around Google and haven't found a complete pack of content for "Growth and Development of all age groups"...
This slide has enough content about Growth and Development of all age groups.....!!
2. Growth means an increase in the size
of an organism or part of an organism, usually
as a result of an increase in the number of
cells. Growth of an organism may stop at
maturity, as in the case of humans and other
mammals, or it may continue throughout life.
3. A gradual change and expansion;
advancement from lower to more advanced
stages of complexity; the emerging and
expanding of the individuals capacities
through growth, maturation and learning.
4. The period from birth to 28 days of
life is called neonatal period and the infant in
this period is termed as neonate or newborn
baby.
5. Rooting reflex:-
When the cheek or corner of the mouth
is stroked, the infant’s head should turn
towards the stimulus and the mouth should
open.

newborn, normally eyes don’t move but the
head turns to the right or left side towards
the object.
15. Yawn reflex:-

decreased oxygen by increasing amount of
inspired air, persists throughout life.
16. Cough reflex:-

larynx or tracheonchial tree causes coughing,
persists throughout the life; Usually present
after 1st day of birth.

thumb is passed along spine, defecation and

at the base of the toes, toes grasps around

with the feet touching a flat firm surface,
there will be a rapid alternating flexion and
extention of the legs.

When baby is held
upright under arms and
dorsal side of foot, it
briskly places against hard
objects such as table, leg
lifts as if foot is stepping on
the table, the age of
disappearance varies.
25. Moro reflex:-
The newborn head is suddenly allowed to
drop backward an inch, there will be
symmetric abduction and extension of the
arms and legs with flanning of fingers.

centers of the spine, at the
level of the defect are widely
spaced.The vertebral segment
appears in U-shape.The defect
may by visualized on
longitudinal scanning.There is
restricted motility of lower
limbs.
111. Microcephaly is an abnormally small
head. Diagnosis depends on biometry:

heart. Normally, the atria are separated by a
dividing wall, the interatrial septum.
Surgical management:
Surgical closure
Open heart surgery
116. Atrio ventricular canal (AVC)
The condition occurs when there's a
hole between the heart's chambers and
problems with the valves that regulate blood
flow in the heart. Sometimes called endocardial
cushion defect or atrioventricular
septal defect, atrioventricular canal defect is
present at birth.
Surgical management:
Surgical closure
Open heart surgery
117. Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF)
Tetralogy of fallot is a most common cyanotic
congenital heart disease.This condition is

▪ Overriding of the aorta
▪ Right ventriculat hypertrophy
Surgical management:
▪ Potts operation
▪ Modified Blalock-Taussig(BT) shunt
▪ Waterson’s operation
▪ Open heart surgery
118. Transposition of Great Arteries:
Transposition of great
arteries(TGA) occurs when the
pulmonary artery originates from the
left ventricle and the aorta originates
from the right ventricle. It is an
embrayologic defect caused by a
straight division of the bulbar trunk
without normal spiraling. It is the most
important cause of cyanosis at birth.
Surgical management:
▪ Beff’s operation
▪ Restelli’s operation
▪ Arterial switch operation
119. Tricuspid Atresia (TA):
Tricuspid atresia is a
form of congenital heart disease
whereby there is a complete absence
of the tricuspid valve.Therefore,
there is an absence of right
atrioventricular connection.This
leads to a hypoplastic (undersized) or
absent right ventricle.
Surgical management:
Homograft
120. Hypoplastic Left heart
syndrome:

syndrome (HLHS) is a rare
congenital heart defect in which

123. A hernia in which abdominal organs
protrude into a baby’s umbilical cord.
124. Gastroschesis represents a congenital defect
characterized by a defect in the anterior
abdominal wall through which the abdominal
contents freely protrude.
125. Hirschsprung’s disease is also called as
congenital aganglionic megacolon. It occurs due
to congenital absence of parasympathetic
ganglionic nerve cells, both in muscle layer or
submucosal layer of distal colon and rectum,
which results in extreme dilatation of the colon.
Surgical management:
Swensen’s operation
Duhamel’s operation
Soave’s operation

anterior abdominal wall is sunken and
presents a concave rather than a convex
contour.

high-pitched sound
with breathing. It is
from an abnormally
formed voice box
(larynx). It is present
at birth (congenital).

(CCHD) is a condition present at birth. CCHD
causes low levels of oxygen in the blood. A
common symptom is a bluish tint to the skin,
called cyanosis

136. A hydrocele is a buildup
of watery fluid around one

Surgical management:
Osteotomy
142. Marfan
syndrome (MFS) is a genetic
disorder of the connective
tissue.The degree to which
people are affected varies.
People with Marfan tend to
be tall, and thin, with long
arms, legs, fingers and toes.
They also typically have
flexible joints and scoliosis.
144. Thalassemia is a group of hereditary
hemolytic anemia characterized by reduction in
the synthesis of hemoglobin. It produces
hypochromic anemiadue to defective
hemoglobinization of RBCs, hemolysis and
ineffective erythropoiesis.
Management:
Blood transfusion
Splenectomy
Bone marrow
transplantation
145. Hemophilia is an inherited bleeding
disorder due to deficiency of plasma coagulation
factors. It is primarily found in males but
transmitted by female carriers.
Management:
Replacement therapy
Home treatment
Gene therapy
Orthotics
Synovectomy
146. Hereditary spherocytosis is a condition
that affects red blood cells. People with this
condition typically experience a shortage of
red blood cells (anemia), yellowing of the
eyes and skin (jaundice), and an enlarged
spleen (splenomegaly)
Management:
BloodTransfusion
Spleenectomy
148. Cystic fibrosis(CF) is s fatal autosomal
recessive disease that manifests itself in multiple body
system.The name cystic fibrosis is derived from the
characteristic histological changes in pancreas. It is
also known as mucoviscidosis.This condition leads to
chronic obstructive pulmonary disease(COPD),
frequent lung disease, deficient pancreatic enzymes,
osteoporosis and abnormally high electrolyte
concentration in sweat.
Management:
Genetic counseling
Gene therapy
149. Phenylketonuria (PKU)
is an inborn error of
metabolism that results in
decreased metabolism of
the amino
acidphenylalanine.
Untreated PKU can lead
to intellectual
disability, seizures,
behavioral problems,
and mental disorders.
151. Deficiency or low circulating
level of thyroid hormones result
in hypothyroidism. Congenital
hypothyroidism is also called as
cretinism.The harmone causes
decreased metabolism, growth
retardation and delayed physical
maturation.
Management:
Replacement therapy with synthetic
levothyroxine
152. Hypopituitarism is the decreased (hypo)
secretion of one or more of the
eight hormones normally produced by
the pituitary gland at the base of the brain.
153. Goiter is the
enlargement of thyroid
gland.When the lateral
lobe of thyroid gland
becomes larger than the
terminal phalanx of child’s
thumb, then it is diagnosed
as thromegaly. Goiter may
develop due to high
production ofTSH in
response to decreased
thyroxine level.
155. Down’s syndrome is
the most common
chromosomal disorder
and most common
identifiable cause of
mental retardation. It is
a condition associated
with variety of
congenital anomalies.
Management:
No specific treatment
Parental counseling
156. Patau syndrome is
a syndrome caused by
a chromosomal abnormality, in
which some or all of the cells of
the body contain extra genetic
material from chromosome 13.
The extra genetic material
disrupts normal development,
causing multiple and complex
organ defects.
Management:
No specific treatment
Parental counseling
158. The failure of the maxillary process to fuse
with nasal elevations on frontal prominence is
called cleft lip.The failure of masses of lateral
palatine process to meet and fuse together is
called cleft palate.
Surgicalmanagement:
Palatoplasty (Cleft Palate)
Surgical repair of lip (Cleft Lip)
