ABOUT THIS WEBSITE...
The "PEDIATRIC NEUROLOGIC EXAM: A NEURODEVELOPMENTAL APPROACH" uses over 145 video demonstrations and narrative descriptions in an online tutorial. It presents the neurological examination of the pediatric patient as couched within the context of neurodevelopmental milestones for Newborns, 3 month-olds, 6 month-olds, 12 month-olds, 18 month-olds, and 2-and-a-half year-olds. Use the Table of Contents on the left to access these tutorials.

In assessing the child’s developmental level, the examiner must know the age when key social, motor, and language skills are normally acquired. The normal neurological findings one would expect for a newborn are certainly different than a 2, 6 or 12-month-old infant.

Obtaining developmental milestones is an important reflection of the maturation of the child’s nervous system, and assessing development is an essential part of the pediatric neurological examination. Delay in obtaining developmental milestones and abnormal patterns of development are important indicators of underlying neurological disease.

This "Internet Accessible Tutorial for Medical Neuroscience in the Pediatric Neurologic Examination" is authored by the University of Utah School of Medicine (Suzanne S. Stensaas, PhD), and the University of Nebraska Medical Center (Paul D. Larsen, MD).

As of November 2009, the movies found in the Pediatric Neurologic Exam website are available for download and re-use in four different video formats depending on your needs...

CLOSED CAPTIONS IN ENGLISH...

We are pleased to announce that as of November 2012 the QuickTime 640x480/640x360 versions of the movies now include closed captions in English. Complete instructions for turning captions ON or OFF are available. From the options in the left-hand menus, look for the link to "HOW TO SHOW CLOSED CAPTIONS Closed Captions icon."

Summarized below is the quick version of the instructions for turning captions ON or OFF:

  • VIEWING FROM THE WEBSITE: Any movie listed in a website page has three blue buttons: VIEW NOW, BIGGER "CC", and DOWNLOAD.
    Viewing options for movies
    If you click the BIGGER "CC" button, a larger sized movie opens in a new window. By default, the closed captions do not automatically show.
    • Simply right-mouse-click anywhere over the movie itself (or Control + Click with early versions of a Macintosh mouse).
    • From the sub-menu that appears, select "SHOW CLOSED CAPTIONING." Wait a few seconds for the captions to begin.
  • VIEWING IN QUICKTIME PLAYER AFTER DOWNLOADING A MOVIE: If you download one of our movies, and choose the QuickTime 640x480/640x360 size, the downloaded movie can be viewed directly in Apple's QuickTime Player. To reveal the closed captions:
    • Select the player's menu item named "VIEW."
    • Then select "SHOW CLOSED CAPTIONING."
    • Please be sure you are using Apple's QuickTime Player and not Windows Media Player. Our captions cannot be revealed when watching the movies with Windows Media Player.
  • MOBILE DEVICES: Additional instructions for revealing closed captions in mobile devices, such as iPhones and iPads, are found on the page "HOW TO SHOW CLOSED CAPTIONS Closed Caption icon."


A companion website to the Pediatric Neurological Examination is the Adult Neurologic Exam: An Anatomical Approach, where the anatomical foundations of the neurologic exam are presented and examples of both normal and abnormal patient conditions are exhibited. You can jump to the Adult Neurologic Exam by using the button NEUROLOGIC EXAM (Adult Basic) at the top of any web page in this site.
