Elementární reflexy posturální



Elementární reflexy posturální (ERP) jsou tonické fixační reflexy.
Při pasivním ohybu některé končetiny umožňují krátké ustálení v dané poloze – fixaci ve flektované poloze.
Jsou ukazatelem funkčního stavu extrapyramidového systému, je možné je použít i k hodnocení svalového tonu.

Answer to your question: 'elemetary' fits into your contex very well, ERP is even used with Mingazzini at times 'primitive' will not be appropriate fro your purposes, I believe https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Primitive_reflexes

Notes to answerer
Asker: Thank you. Is 'elementary' the right word, or are they 'primitive'?

Asker: I've noted your comment that 'elementary' is preferable here. I see your point, that 'primitive' refers to newborns and infants.
