CLASS OUTLINE ew PE 1.4: Definition of Growth and Development and factors affecting normal growth and development. PE 1.2: Patterns of growth in infants, children and adolescents. PE 1.3: Methods of assessment of growth: WHO & Indian standards. PE 1.5.2: Discuss the normal developmental milestones with respect to motor, behavior, social, adaptive and language development. » Growth denotes a increase in the body mass as a result of multiplication of cells and increase intracellular substance, (quantitative change) » Development denotes acquisition of new skills for optimal functioning. (qualitative change), 7 The terms growth an development are not interchangeable, » But growth & development usually proceed concurrently. « Growth starts s from + Growth follows a predictable Sequence. + Direction of Growth 1. During fetal life: Cephalo-caudal: Head region ~trunk > leg region. 2. Inthe postnatal life: Proximo-distal: Head growth slows down Growth does not progress at the same rate at all ti a) Rapid in early childhood and adolescents. b) Slowin mid-childhood. + Notall body parts grow in the same rate at the sai + Each child grows in its own unique way of| growth.

Upper segment: Lower segment ratio Serial measurements of anthropometric parameters using same equipment are more useful than a single measurements, Rate of increase of an anthropometric parameter with time is called its Veloci e.g. Weight Velocity, Height velocity etc. SUIT - Anthropometric Indices + When 2 anthropometric parameters are combined, it is called an Anthropometric index. + Important anthropometri are: 1 BM =a 2.
