Innovative Treatments and Research
The treatment we provide to your child is based on the best scientific information and medical practices available. Treatment will depend on the extent of your child’s injury, and might include both non-surgical and surgical options.
The Brachial Plexus team is actively involved in basic and clinical research. Our basic science research focuses on muscle growth and preserving muscle tissue. Our clinical studies examine surgical and treatment outcomes for children with brachial plexus injuries. We are also involved in several multi-center studies in collaboration with colleagues at other pediatric centers.
We are committed to improving the quality of life for every child in our care.
Coordinated, Team-Based Brachial Plexus Care
Your child is seen by a dedicated team that helps address each patient's specific goals such as improved movement, meeting developmental milestones, pain management and providing family support—all in one setting. We communicate regularly with local providers and having one point of contact allows for easy communication with our team.
Dedicated Support for Traveling Families
About 40 percent of our patients come from outside the Cincinnati tri-state area, and we serve families from across the country. We make scheduling as smooth as possible with our program specialist and clinical program manager managing all appointments and helping to coordinate testing.
We also connect families with travel resources and accommodations. Whether you live nearby or across the country, we help you plan each step with confidence.
