Feeding: Oral-motor Development
a. Prior to 33 weeks of gestation an infant is fed by non-oral means.
b. 35 weeks of gestation or after: jaw and tongue movements are strong enough to allow for feeding
c. 40 weeks of gestation: rooting reflexes, gag and cough reflex are present for up to four months, protecting the airway and decreasing the chances of aspiration.
d. 4 - 5 month: munching occurs consisting of a phasic bite and release of a soft cookie.
Oral-motor Development continued
e. 6 months: strong up and down movement of the tongue.
f. 7 - 8 months: beginning of mastication of soft and mashed foods with diagonal jaw movement.
g. 9 months: lateral tongue movements make mastication of soft and mashed food effective, able to drink from a cup; however, jaw is not firm.
h. 12 months: jaw is firm, there is rotary chewing allowing for a good bite on a hard cookie.
I. 24 months: able to chew most meats and raw vegetables.
Observation of feeding includes:
postural control, oral sensitivity, motor control of the jaw, lip, tongue, cheek, and coordination and endurance of all.
Intervention for oral motor control:
Hand positioning of the caregiver
place the index finger longitudinally under the child's lip, middle finger under the jaw, and place the thumb on the lateral end of the mandible.
Facilitate lip closure
by applying slight upward pressure of the index finger under the child's lip
Facilitate jaw closure
by firm upper pressure of the middle finger under the jaw
Hand positioning of the index and middle fingers to assist in inhibiting tongue thrust
Press bowl of spoon downward and hold on tonue
Facilitate swallow by lip closure
and by placement and slight downward pressure of the spoon on the middle aspect of the tongue
Facilitate chewing
by placement of foods, such as long soft cooked vegetable, between the gum and teeth.
Integrate preventative measures to work out of abnormal patterns
1. Provide firm downward pressure, using a spoon, on the middle aspect of the tongue in presence of a tonic bite reflex.
2. Prevent tongue retraction to avoid choking.
3. Facilitate lip closure for a tongue thrust that can result in loss of liquid and food, drooling, and failure to thrive.
4. Decrease tactile sensitivity prior to feeding as well as other times, by providing firm pressure; encourage sucking/chewing on a cloth; rub gums, palate, tongue; promote oral exploration of toys; use a NUK toothbrush; and vary textures of foods, gradually introducing mashed potatoes mixed with other vegetables and soft meats.

Assessment of Premature Infants' Behavior (APIB)
Focus, Method, and Population
Focus: assesses infant's pattern of developing behavioral organization in response to increasing sensory and environmental stimuli.

Method: a behavior checklist and scale

Population: premature infants
APIB
Scoring and Interpretation
1. Scores are obtained prior to administration for a baseline, during administration and following administration.
2. Scores reflect the degree of facilitation provided by the examiner.
3. Eye movements and asymmetry of performance are measured.
4. Function and integration of the physiological, motor, state, attentional/interactive, and regulatory systems are determined.
5. Interpretation of scores allows the therapist to plan interventions, measure outcomes, and plan follow-up.
Neurological Assessment of Pre-term and Full-term New-born Infant (NAPFI)
Focus
a rating scale consisting of a brief neurological examination incorporated into routine assessment.
- Can be used with newborns in an incubator and/or on a ventilator if handling can be tolerated.
- Habituation, movement and tone, reflexes, and neurobehavioral responses including state transition, level of arousal and alertness, auditory and visual orientation, irritability, consolability, and cry are assessed.
NAPFI
Method
Items are administered in a sequence; first in a quiet or sleep state, followed by items not influenced by state, then during the awake state.
NAPFI
Scoring and Interpretation
1. The infant's state is recorded, based on six gradings of state, for each item.
2. Interpretation of scores allows the therapist to document a pattern of responses to reflect neurological functions and identify deviations from diagnosis.
3. A comparison of pre-term with full-term infant behavior is provided.
NAPFI
Population
pre-term and full-term newborn infants
Denver Developmental Screening Test II
Focus
standardized task performance and observation screening tool for early identification of children at risk for developmental delays in four areas including personal-social, fine motor-adaptive, language, and gross motor skills.
Method
1. Test includes 125 test items.
2. Test items below the child's chronological age level are administered with sequential progression towards higher level chronological items until the child fails three times.
3. Behaviors observed during the screening are marked on a checklist.
4. Questionnaires for home screening of environments and prescreening of development are available to administer to parents/caregivers.
Scoring and Interpretation
1. Each item scored indicates the chronological age at which it is expected to be performed. the child's performance on that item is compared to determine whether it is age appropriate or delayed, and is marked as pass or fail.
2. The test is discontinued when 3 items are failed.
3. The screening allows for interpretation of a child's performance in terms of being normal, abnormal, questionable, or unstable in personal-social, fine motor-adaptive, language, and gross motor abilities.
4. Interpretation of findings must be considered in the context of other pertinent information and with ongoing observation.
Population
1 month to 6 years
Bayley Scales of Infant Development, 3rd Edition
(BSID-III)
Focus
standardized rating scales that assess multiple areas of development to attain a baseline for intervention and to monitor progress.
1. Evaluated 5 domains: cognitive, language, and motor, which are performance based tasks, and social-emotional and adaptive behavioral skills.
BSID-III
Method
1. Age appropriate items are selected from items on the different domain scales.
2. Involves parents completing 2 questionnaires.
BSID-III
Scoring and Interpretation, Population
1. Composite scores yield qualitative descriptors and performance levels for each domain.
2. Results are used to plan interventions for any delays.

Population: 1 to 42 months
