social overtures.
• Interaction with caretakers and examiner.
• Body position (leaning forward in sitting
position; epiglottitis, pericarditis).
• Weak cry (serious illness), high-pitched cry
(increased intracranial pressure, metabolic
disorder); moaning (serious illness, meningitis),
grunting (respiratory distress).
Does the child appear to be:

malnourished?
(2) Alert and active or lethargic/fatigued?
(3) Well hydrated or dehydrated?
(4) Unusual body odors?
