mobility was completed outside of the MOH. The mobility behavior of both Child A and Child B were most frequently observed as stationary with limb/trunk movements while in the MOH. Child A engaged in three main types of mobility behaviors: 1) stationary/motionless‚ 2) stationary with limb/trunk movements‚ and 3) slow-easy movements. Stationary mobility with limb/trunk movements occurred most frequently (62% of the time)‚ with less frequent observation of slow easy movements (23% of the time)‚ or stationary/motionless

Anatomical Terms Certain terms are used to describe the location of body parts‚ regions of the body‚ and imaginary planes by which the body can be sectioned. You should become familiar with these terms before your study of anatomy and physiology begins. Anatomical terms are useful only if everyone has in mind the same position of the body and is using the same reference points. Therefore‚ we will assume that the body is in the anatomical position: standing erect‚ with face forward‚ arms at the sides
