Most neonates, including those who are preterm, are active at birth and move all extremities in response to stimuli. Asphyxia, maternal drugs, CNS damage, amyotonia congenita, and myasthenia gravis decrease muscle tone. Flexion contractures and absent joint creases are signs of CNS damage that occurred in utero.
