The STNR position

The Moro reflex

Moro reflex—a reflex that occurs when the infant is startled. The possible causes can be a sudden, strong sensory stimulus, such as a noise (auditory stimulus), a rapid change in the head’s position (vestibular stimulus), a sudden change in light or dark (visual stimulus), a strong pain, or heat (tactile stimulus). These changes are expressed through a quick and symmetrical movement of both arms. They are flung backward in extension and then rapidly gathered toward the body’s center in flexion. When the response is present, any sudden stimulus brings a quick reaction in the entire body and a disturbance in balance, in the hands’ free movement, in coordination, and in the ability to remain in a position of stable sitting.
