Developmental problems are relatively prevalent and often treatable if early interventions are to be given. Much better prognosis will also be given if they are treated early & properly by early detection through the use of the developmental screening test. Developmental screening is the application of relatively quick and simple procedures to an asymptomatic population to select out those individuals who are highly likely...

Early neonatal hypocalcemia occurs within the first few days of life, with the lowest concentrations of serum calcium being reached at 24 to 48 hours of age. An infant can be considered to be hypocalcemic when serum calcium concentrations are below 7 mg/dl or when ionized calcium concentrations are below 3 to 3.5 mg/dl. The most commonly encountered causes of neonatal hypocalcemia are prematurity,...

Clin Exp Pediatr. 1986;29(8):819-829.   Published online August 31, 1986
The inability to detect Korotkoff sounds in infants have in the past made it difficult for most pediatricians to measure blood pressures by indirect conventional sphygmomanometry. Now, however, Korotkoff sounds, or the mechanical events which produce them, can be sensed with an ultrasonic Doppler device. The author measured systolic and diastolic blood pressure using a Doppler arteriokinetog raphic instrument during 6...
