Please read the following and answer the questions based on information contained in the scenario. Donny Nutt was referred to you for therapy. The referral states his diagnosis as delayed development. He is 8 months old at the time you see him and the mother reports to you that he was born prematurely by C-section after she went into early labor at 32 weeks gestation. He had an APGAR of 4 at one minute, 6 at five minutes, and 6 at ten minutes. He required oxygen at birth and was in the NCU for 6 weeks. While in the NICU he had a cranial ultrasound that revealed an intraventricular hemorrhage (IVH) grade 3 on the right side of his brain. Today she reports to you that he has been a poor feeder, is unable to hold his bottle, is irritable, and never sleeps more than 2 hours at a time. When he cries he pushes and arches his back and becomes very stiff. He still has a difficult time holding his head up for long periods of time and when tired rests it to the side. You notice that when you speak to him he appears to look past you and does not make eye contact however he does smile and turn his head to locate sound. On a pull to sit his head initially lags behind but then he begins to right his head. When placed in sitting he folds into flexion over his legs and does not support on his arms. He rolls prone to supine with increased extensor tone and not segmentally. He does not roll supine to prone. When placed in standing he immediately comes up on his toes. Mom wants to know when he will walk. When dealing with a premature baby the “assessment expectations” are to be based on what age for this child?
