Brachial Plexus Clinical Examination | Dr. Anubhav Gupta

In this detailed video, Dr. Anubhav Gupta, a Consultant Plastic Surgeon, explains the essential steps for conducting a clinical examination to assess brachial plexus injuries.

He simplifies this examination by dividing it into distinct steps to evaluate different muscle groups and sensory areas:

Shoulder Movement: Assessing if the patient can lift their shoulder, which indicates the functioning of nerves supplying the shoulder muscles.
Elbow Flexion: Observing whether the patient can bend the elbow, helping to understand the state of nerves connected to the elbow.
Wrist Extension: Checking if the patient can lift their wrist up and down, which provides insight into nerve function at the wrist level.
Finger Flexion and Extension: Testing if the patient can open and close their fingers, evaluating the nerves that control finger movement.
Thumb Movements: Finally, examining the thumb for any movement limitations, which can indicate issues with thumb mobility.

Additionally, Dr. Anubhav Gupta assesses sensory function by gently touching different areas to determine where the patient has sensation and where they don’t, which helps localize nerve damage more precisely.
