Track and assess pediatric developmental milestones from birth to 5 years. Flags potential delays using CDC developmental surveillance guidelines.
Track and assess pediatric developmental milestones from birth to 5 years across five developmental domains. Based on the CDC's 2022 updated "Learn the Signs. Act Early." milestones and the AAP Bright Futures framework, this skill provides structured checklists with automated delay detection, critical milestone flagging, and referral guidance for well-child visits.

Generating a milestone checklist for a 12-month visit:
Use the developmental milestone tracker for a 12-month-old child
Returns the complete checklist for the 12-month bracket: plays pat-a-cake, waves bye-bye, calls parent "mama" or "dada," understands "no," puts objects in containers, object permanence, pulls to stand (critical), cruises on furniture, and pincer grasp.
Assessing a child with potential delays:
Assess milestones for a 12-month-old: pulls to stand = not_yet, walks holding furniture = not_yet, calls parent mama/dada = not_yet, waves bye-bye = achieved, plays pat-a-cake = achieved, understands no = emerging, puts something in container = achieved, looks for hidden things = achieved, pincer grasp = achieved
Returns domain-specific analysis showing gross motor at 0% on track with critical flag for "pulls up to stand," language at 33% with concern for absent first words, and an urgent referral recommendation for developmental-behavioral pediatrics and Early Intervention evaluation.
