A Multicenter External Validation of a Novel Prediction Model for Elbow Flexion Recovery After Nerve Transfer Surgery in Brachial Plexus Injuries

• Status: Completed
• Phase: —
• Study type: Observational
• Enrollment: 200 (actual)
• Sponsor: Siriraj Hospital · Academic / Other
• Sex: All
• Age: 10 Years
• Healthy volunteers: Not accepted

Summary

The goal of this observational study is to validate a risk prediction model developed for unsuccessful elbow flexion recovery after nerve transfer surgery in patients with brachial plexus injury. The main question it aims to answer is how well a risk prediction model perform in a different dataset, which are patients with brachial plexus injury who underwent surgery in a different time period or a different hospital.

Conditions

• Brachial Plexus Injury

Interventions

Type	Name	Description
PROCEDURE	Nerve transfer surgery for elbow flexion	A functioning but less important nerve (e.g. spinal accessory nerve, phrenic nerve, fascicle of median nerve, or fascicle of ulnar nerve) was transferred to nerves innervating biceps or brachialis muscle to restore elbow flexion.
