Graduation....still some questions.

[Guest guest]

We graduated from the DOC band today. My son is 10 months, and was in

the band for 15 weeks.

His measurements before/after are:

cephalic index: 90.21/89.8 standard deviation 3.31/1.8

cranial vault asymmetry: 12mm/5mm

mid-face asymmetry: 3mm/2mm

skull-base asymmetry: 5mm/3mm

Are these numbers within the normal range? I have been having a hard

time finding what the numbers " should be " . If someone has some

standard ranges that you can share, that would be helpful. I know he

has changed a LOT, but I can still see the plagio and the bracy, but it

may be just because I am " looking for it " . And, I'm really not sure

what " normal " is anymore.

Thanks!

Brachycephaly severity is measured by the Cephalic Ratio or Index

ideal ratio - 78%

normal - 73-83%

moderate - 83.1% to 87.9%

severe - 88% and higher

You have made good correction in the asymmetry of the head. Plagio

severity:

0-3 mm is normal

<6 mm is very mild

6-10 mm is mild

10-15 mm is moderate

15+ mm is severe

I just posted his before and after pictures under Plagio Babies " B "

there are three pages, McHenry 1,2,3. Please let me know

what you think.

Thanks!

I think he looks great! I see definite improvement on his right

side. His end numbers fall within CT's standard of " normal " range.

Congratulations!

I agree with - your son looks great. From the pics I see

quite a difference!

Congrats!
