<prompt> An 8 month old female has history of kernicterus. On sudden movement of the babys neck, the following features were seen abduction and extension of the arms, opening of hands and adduction of arms in front of the body.Which reflex is elicited in this infant?Moros reflexStartle reflexAsymmetric tonic reflexParachute reflex  <response>: The Moro reflex is elicited by supporting the infant in a semierect position and then allowing the infants head to fall backwards onto the examiners hand. A normal response consists of symmetric extension and abduction of the fingers and upper extremities, followed by flexion of the upper extremities and an audible cry. An asymmetric response can signify a fractured clavicle, brachial plexus injury, or hemiparesis. Absence of the Moro reflex in a term newborn is ominous, suggesting significant dysfunction of the CNS.
