Dr Als Synactive Theory of Infant Development offers a structured framework for interpreting the behavior of premature infants, categorizing their behaviors into five distinct "subsystems of functioning and delves into comprehending the interconnected autonomic, motor, state, and attention systems in infants, as expressed through behavioral cues. This theory emphasizes the significance of keenly observing these cues and tailoring interventions to foster a developmental care approach. It recognizes the vulnerability of premature infants, aiming to minimize stressors and promote positive interactions for optimal neurodevelopmental support. #PrematureInfants #NeonatalCare #DevelopmentalCare #SynactiveTheory #InfantDevelopment #pediatricPT#infantPT #Neurodevelopment #EarlyInterventions #ChildHealth #ParentingJourney #NICU #Pediatrics#PainMinimization

Clinicians may struggle to recognize Giggle Incontinence (GI) issues in children and preadolescents due to a lack of disclosure, often caused by embarrassment. One such issue is giggle incontinence, which can be difficult to treat. However, first-line treatment options include reassurance of cure, timed voiding or bowel management, and biofeedback and Kegel exercises, regardless of GI severity. Second-line treatment with oxybutynin and timed voiding could be tried, followed by third-line treatment with MPH, though this option may be objectionable to some parents due to its association with attention deficit hyperactivity disorder. Learn more about GI issues in children and preadolescents in this case report from Canadian Family Physician. #pediatrics #GIissues #healthcare

Leadership is more than just a title—it’s about integrity, empathy, and action.

Measuring is Knowing: Insights from Pediatric Growth Data Understanding the basic measurements of height and weight in our patients is crucial not only for their current health but also for their future well-being. Our recent study, involving 25,782 children aged 2 to 20 (10,494 boys and 15,288 girls), reveals significant findings. Compared to the 2004 #VUB, #KUL publication, our data indicate that children today are significantly heavier starting from the age of 14. This trend underscores the importance of continuous monitoring and proactive health measures. Accurate measurements today pave the way for a healthier tomorrow. #Pediatrics #HealthData #ChildHealth #GrowthMonitoring #FutureHealth #PodologischCentrumPaulBORGions #Podiatry #prevention #sports
