How To: Comprehensive Brachial Plexus Examination. By an Orthopaedic Surgeon.

In this video, Dr Oscar Brumby-Rendell takes us through a comprehensive brachial plexus examination.
The aim of this video is to demonstrate a systematic approach to an examination, typically injured from a tractional type industry, lateral to the roots of the neck, or a high traumatic scenario like a car accident.
We will also go over the myotomes and dermatomes of the cervical spine which is more commonly a spinal injury assessment, which is performed rapidly.
Specific equipment for this examination includes a tendon hammer to elicit the tendon reflexes whilst performing the examination.

Great video. I will fail this test horribly but no one has ever diagnosed me with brachial plexus. It’s been over 2 years since my car accident and I honestly believe now this is what I have.
