Assessment of Functional Recovery of Adults who Sustain Brachial Plexus Injuries

Brief description of study

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the range of motion improvements of patients receiving surgical and nonsurgical treatment for proximal humerus fractures, brachial plexus injuries, or shoulder arthroscopy. To do this, we will use a depth ranging sensor-based motion analysis system (the “Reachable Workspace” system). This system tracks the movement of your arm with a Microsoft Kinect, and uses the information to calculate your range of motion. We will use this range of motion information to determine how well you are healing. This study has the potential to determine the clinical effectiveness of surgical versus nonsurgical treatment of adults with these conditions.
