26. Psychomotor development of a
child
Expresses the becoming of different areas of the nervous
system of a child in particular periods of life. The assessment
of psychomotor development of a child is carried out during
every prophylactic check up using a table, in which age
peculiarities of psychomotor development of a child are given.
Assessment of psychomotor development of a child is carried
out on the following criteria:
Motorics -purposeful manipulation activity of a child ;
Statics -fixation and holding of definite parts of the body in
necessary position;
Sensory reactions - formation of corresponding reactions on
light, sound, pain, touch;
Speech - expressive speech and understanding the speech;
Psychic development - positive and negative emotions,
formation of social age.
27. Peculiarities of PMD of newborn
children
For newborns are characteristic uncoordinated
athetoselike movements of extremities, rigidness
of muscles, physiological hypertonus of
muscles-benders, loud cry. Hearing is
decreased, feeling of pain is weakened.
Besides, neuro-psychic development of a
newborn child is characterized by the presence
of a number of unconditioned reflexes.
28. Reflexes of newborn period
1) steady life long automatisms (exist during the whole life):
Swallowing;
Tendon reflexes of extremities;
Cornea;
Conjunctive;
Orbiculopalpebrale.
2) Transitory (exist after the birth and afterwards gradually
disappear):
Oral segmentary automatisms (swallowing, seeking, palm-oral-head
or Babkin reflex);
Spinal segmentary automatisms (defense, support, automatic
walking, catching reflex of Robinson, reflexes of Moro, Kernig,
crawling reflex of Bauer, reflexes of Babinski, Halant, Peres.
29. Reflexes of newborn period
Susking reflex lasts up to 10-12 months. It
can be brought about putting a baby’s
dummy on a mouth of a newborn, the
baby makes swallowing movements.
30. Reflexes of newborn period
Rooting reflex - on stroking the baby’s skin in
the area of the angle of the mouth he moves
his head, moves down his lower lip and
moves his tongue to the irritant. Is kept by 3-
4 months.
31. Reflexes of newborn period
Palm-mouth-head reflex (Babkin) – in pressing
with big fingers on palms in the area of the
mounds of big fingers of a baby, he opens his
mouth and bend his head forward to the breasts.
Lasts 2-3 months.
Defense reflex – if a newborn is put on his
abdomen he reflectory turns his head in side. Is
kept up to 2 months of life.
32. Reflexes of newborn period
A grasping reflex - on touching the palms or
soles of the baby with fingers - he grasps them
and holds firmly, in this the child can be lifted
over the plane. The reflex lasts for 3-4 months.
33. Reflexes of newborn period
Babinski reflex - on irritating
the sole of the baby on the
outside of the foot from the
heel to the base a big finger
slow straightening up of the
big finger and bending the
other fingers takes placer.
This reflex is supposed to
be physiological up to 2
years age.
34. Reflexes of newborn period
Reflex of
automatic walking -
on bending the
baby’s body in a
position of
protecting reflex he
makes steps
forward. The reflex
disappears in 2
months.
35. Reflexes of newborn period
Crawling reflex of Bauer -
in a position on the
abdolmen the baby tries to
lift his head and makes
crawling movements. If you
put your hands under the
baby’s feet he will actively
push off with legs from your
hands. The reflex lasts 4
months.
36. Reflexes of newborn period
Peres reflex - if the baby is put on
his side and move your hand from
the coccyx to the neck along the
bony parts of the spine this causes
short apnoe in the baby, then a
sharp cry, lordosis, bending of
extremities, hypertonus of the
muscles, sometimes defecation and
urination. This reflex is checked up
at the end of examination as it
causes pain in a baby. This reflex is
supposed to be physiological the
first 3-4 months of the baby’s life.
37. Reflexes of newborn period
the third group of reflexes, which are formed not at once
after the birth, but in the definite months of life. These
reflexes are called determining automatisms. This group
of reflexes includes the upper and lower posotonic
reflexes of Landau, simple cervical and trunk
determining reflexes, chain determining reflex from trunk
to trunk.
The upper posotonic reflex of Landau - in a position of a
baby on the abdomen he rises his head, the upper part
of his trunk and, supporting with his hands, stays in this
position. This reflex appears at the age of 3-4 months.

the following medical observation. If a child
fulfills all the actions characteristic for his age, it
is necessary to carry on consultation on the care
with the aim of development. If the child cannot
fulfill the proposed actions or there is delay in
appearing new skills, the mother must be taught
how to carry on studies with the child aimed at
development and how to use additional
stimulations for producing skills, which are
