Babinski reflex is one of the normal reflexes in infants. Reflexes are responses that occur when the body receives a certain stimulus. The Babinski reflex happens after the bottom of the foot has been rubbed firmly. The big toe then moves up or to the top surface of the foot. The other toes fan out. This reflex is normal in children up to 2 years old. It disappears as the child gets older. It may disappear as early as 12 months. When the Babinski reflex is present in a child older than 2…

An additional reflex I tested was the sucking reflex I put a binky up to her lips (this was the stimulus) and her response was sucking on it. This reflex was also seen when I fed her a bottle later on. Another reflex I tested was the plantar grasp reflex. This reflex requires you to stimulate the foot. You do this by applying “pressure to the foot proximal to the toes and distal to the ball…

observed, with extension of the forearm. Further, branchoradialis reflex was tested, when forearm was struck directly, about 2-3 cm above the styloid process, and +2 response with flexion and supination of the forearm observed. When quadriceps reflex (knee jerk) tested, it was struck directly, just below the patella, +2 response observed with extension of the lower leg, and palpation of contraction of the quadriceps. Achilles Reflex (ankle jerk) was tested by directly striking Achilles tendon,…

Neurological Assessment of a Newborn A newborn neurological assessment is performed during a complete physical exam. The nervous system consists of the brain, spinal cord, 12 cranial nerves that come from the brain and other various nerves that arise from the spinal column (University of Rochester Medical Center [URMC], 2014). A thorough neurological examination is important to detect underlying problems that can cause delay or deficit in the normal development and functioning of an infant…

immediately. Loss of sensation in the posterior leg and the foot, loss of dorsiflexion or plantarflexion, and loss of deep tendon reflexes at the ankle can point to sciatic nerve damage. The deep tendon reflex at the ankle is tested by striking the achilles tendon with a reflex hammer and noting plantar flexion. Then the results are compared to the other side. If left untreated, the sciatic nerve can become encased in heterotopic ossification (Rodriguez-Merchan and Goddard, 2000). A femoral…

A 42-year-old male is admitted to the ICU for septic shock and hypotension. Vital signs include heart rate of 115 beats/min, respiratory rate 22 breaths/min, blood pressure of 82/40 mmHg, and oxygen saturation of 88% on 2L nasal cannula.
