Answer:

True.

Explanation:

SIDS is sudden infant death syndrome.If hospital personnel have concerns about possible choking for the first  few hours following birth, they can place infants on their sides, propped  up against the side of the bassinet for stability. However, after several  hours, the baby should be placed wholly on his or her back to sleep.

Babies with certain upper-airway malformations (e.g., Robin syndrome) may have acute airway obstructive episodes relieved by prone positioning and some physicians believe that babies with severe gastroesophageal reflux may benefit from being placed in the stomach position with the head elevated following eating.However, no recent literature supports or refutes the benefits of this therapy. There may be other infants in whom the risk/benefit balance favors stomach sleeping. Health care providers should consider the potential benefit to the baby when recommending infant sleep position.

If medical personnel determine that the stomach sleep position is necessary because of a medical condition or other concern, health care providers should be sure to advise parents and caregivers to reduce the risk of SIDS in other ways, such as avoiding soft bedding and ensuring that babies do not overheat. For most babies, however, stomach and side sleeping are not advised.

Yes. Infants need “tummy time” while they are awake and are being supervised. Spending time on the stomach strengthens muscles in the shoulders and neck that help infants to acquire developmental milestones. It also helps to prevent flat spots on the infant’s head. Health care providers should advise parents and caregivers that a certain amount of tummy time is a very important and necessary part of an infant’s development. While there has been limited research on the issue of how much tummy time is ideal, the results of one study suggest that more tummy time is associated with better motor development.40 More research is needed before a specific amount of  time can be recommended.

Assess one strength and one weakness with respect to your overall physical fitness. State a long-term goal to address the weakne
Lesechka [4]

Hi. This question requires a personal answer where you must assess your own physical fitness to answer it. However, I hope the answer below can help you.

My biggest weakness regarding my physical fitness is the inconsistency in the frequency at which I exercise. This prevents me from creating a constant and efficient physical fitness and makes it impossible for me to have the stamina to perform some simple tasks that require physical effort. My strength in terms of fitness is that I am able to stay in an activity for a long time and I know this would be strengthened if I stimulated my fitness with regular exercise.

To reduce my weakness I would use internal Benchmarking. For this, I would form a group of friends who need to practice exercises and would establish an exercise schedule, where each friend would encourage the other to practice the exercises at the right time. My goal with this is to be able to exercise three times a week, every week, until the end of next year.

It is important to emphasize that Benchmarking is the process developed to establish improvements in some areas, company or event and Internal Benchmarking is the one that seeks this improvement within the resources that the individual who needs to be improved already has.
