Background: Brachial
plexus syndrome Injury causes chronic impairments that require long-term
management. Injuries to the brachial plexus frequently result in decreased
upper limb sensation and muscle strength was involved in two-wheeler versus
lorry Road Traffic Accident (RTA). It results in decreased upper limb sensation
and muscle strength.
Aim: The aim Is to find
out the effectiveness of neuromuscular electrical stimulation along with
conventional therapy in rehabilitation of post traumatic damage of brachial
plexus in brachial plexus in multiple trauma patient.
Case Study: A
21-year-old man was involved in two-wheeler versus lorry Road Traffic Accident
(RTA). Which leads to brachial plexus injury due to penetrating injury and
multiple traumas in various parts the body. The patient received neuromuscular
electrical stimulation along with conventional therapy, which includes
suspension therapy, stretching and strengthening exercise along with massage
therapy.
Outcome Measures: The
oxford grading scale used to measure the strength of the muscle involved. The
disability of arm, shoulder and hand [DASH] questionnaire assess the functional
disability.
Result: The patient is now
functionally independent shown by DASH Score.
Conclusion: Neuromuscular
electrical stimulation along with conventional therapy is effective in
rehabilitation of post traumatic damage of brachial plexus in brachial plexus
in multiple trauma patient.
