The management of brachial plexus birth injuries (BPBI) remains controversial and ever evolving. In this article, studies are examined to provide further insight into the ongoing controversies and debates surrounding BPBI. The articles are diverse and examine the topics of aetiology, demographics, reliability versus accuracy of measurements and surgical management. The management of BPBI may differ depending on resources. Outcome measures may also vary depending on geography. Future research should focus on developing consensus-validated measures and reproducible surgical techniques. These can then guide further population-based research and provide guidelines to minimize the incidence of BPBI.
臂丛神经出生损伤(BPBI)的管理仍然存在争议,并且在不断发展。本文通过研究进一步深入探讨了 BPBI 持续存在的争议和争论。这些文章内容丰富,探讨了病因学、人口统计学、测量的可靠性与准确性以及手术管理等主题。BPBI 的管理可能因资源而异。结局指标也可能因地理位置而异。未来的研究应侧重于制定共识验证的措施和可重复的手术技术。这些措施可以指导进一步的基于人群的研究,并提供指南以尽量减少 BPBI 的发生率。
