Growth & Development HU Yan Dept. of Child Health Care CHCMU
Growth an increase in size of body Development increased complexity of function
OBJECTIVES • Discribe the growth pattern before puberty • 2. Understand other indices of growth and their clinical applications • 3. List the indices of growth assessment
Patterns of physical growth • Other indices of physical growth • Regularities • Growth assessment
Patterns of physical growth • Other indices of physical growth • Regularities • Growth assessment
Weight To evaluate present nutrient state
Weight (kg) Age Weight (kg) Increment(kg) Increment (kg/y ) At birth 3 3/0~3m 3/3~12m 12m 9± 6 3/1~2y 24m 12± 3 >2y ~Puberty 2 10
Growth Patterns of Weight 1. First growth spurt: first year of life 2. Different growth rate in different age
Attention • About formulae • 3~12months: weight(kg)=(age month+9)/2 Do not be used in growth assessment Different growth rate Why? Individual difference
Linear Growth < 3y Supine ---Length ≥3y • ---Height Stand
Age Length or Height (cm) Increment(cm) Increment (cm/y ) At birth 50 11~12 12m 75± 12~13 25 10 10 24m 85± >2y~Puberty 5~7 14
Growth Pattern of Linear Growth 1. First growth spurt: first year of life 2. Different growth rate in different age
Crown-rump Length/Sitting height Supine <3y - Crown-rump length ≥3y Sit • Sitting height
Puberty The ratio of sitting height/total height 19
Differential diagnosis of short stature Proportionate Disproportionate 20
Head Circumference Be related with the growth of brain and skull
Growth Pattern of H.C 1. First growth spurt: first year of life 2. Different growth rate in different age
Abnormality of H.C Cerebral dysplasia, Microcephaly,etc Small —— • increase too fast —— Hydrocephalus,etc
Growth on Puberty The 2nd growth spurt (Peak of Height Velocity,PHV) Girls: age 9~11 Boys: age 11~13 Attention: individual difference
Patterns of physical growth • Other indices of physical growth • Regularities • Growth assessment
Cranium Spine Long bone Skeleton development Dental development
Anterior Fontanel Size: 1.5~2cm at birth (0.6~3.6cm) Closure Time: 18~24m (4~26m)
Abnormality of anterior fontanel Small size or early closure: Microcephaly,etc Large size or delayed closure: Hydrocephalus, Cretinism,etc
Abnormality of anterior fontanel Intracranial hypertension( Encephalitis, Meningitis,etc) Bulging fontanel: Sunken fontanel : Dehydration
Posterior Fontanel Size: 0~0.5cm at birth Closure Time: 6~8weeks
Long bone development • Endochondral: Length • Intramembranous: Width
Newborn 19-year-old Development of ring finger
Bone Age It is that the age should be according to the number,density and morphological features of the osteite. Method: X-ray of left hand & wrist left knee(sometimes)
Greulich-Pyle Method 8 yrs 7 mths 17 yrs
Clinical applications of BA • To diagnose diseases • Hypothyoidism, • GHD, etc Delayed: • Congenital adrenal hyperplasia, Precocious puberty, etc Advanced:
Clinical applications of BA • To predicte final height • Others
Dental development • Primary teeth: • Mineralization:fetus • First eruption:4~10m • Last eruption:≤3y • Total number: 20
Permanent teeth • Mineralization:0~2y • First eruption:6y ± • Last eruption:>18y • Total number: 32 47
Abnormality of Dentition • Delayed eruption–>13m • Idiopathic,Hypothyroidism,etc • Crowding or Disorder – • Hypothyroidism, Brain dysplasia,etc • Failing to erupt – • Ectodermal dysplasia,Mechanical blockage,etc
