Positioning effect on child development in infancy.
Mádlová, Markéta ; Sedlak, Petr (advisor) ; Paulová, Markéta (referee)
This thesis is focused on positioning the child in the early stages of his life. Greater importance is attached to positioning since 1992 when the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) published recommendations for a healthy baby sleep position. In connection with the recommended supine sleep position has been a decrease in the incidence of sudden infant death syndrome (SIDS), which was the primary reason for the worldwide campaign (Back to Sleep Campaign). Prone or supine position may affect early motor development or be a cause of deformities of the skull. Higher exposure supine position may cause variations in the physiological development of the skull and results in a positional plagiocephaly (PP) or dental arch deformities.
