Brief Summary: This study examined the effect of reciprocal electrical stimulation RES across elbow flexors and extensors on the reaction of degeneration percentage and motor function in Erbs palsy infants
Forty infants with Erbs palsy aged between 2-5 months were randomly allocated to one of two equal groups the control group A received standard physical therapy the study group B received traditional physical therapy plus a 15-minute RES through elbow flexors and extensors For three months interventions were carried out three times each week The percentage of degeneration and motor function reaction were assessed pre-and post-treatment using electromyography and Toronto active motion scale respectively
