Infants that develop a neonatal brachial plexus palsy are subject to more than just a focal nerve injury. In this chapter we discuss injuries that both occur simultaneously with the NBPP and also develop along with the nerve injury over time. In order to appreciate the full impact that this has on an individual’s life, we have to look at more factors than neurological motor recovery. Through this chapter you will learn about physical, anatomic, respiratory, sensory, cognitive, and psychosocial injuries that can impact the overall outcome for children with neonatal brachial plexus palsy. With a better understanding of the multiple issues that may arise within this population, we hope to be able to care for them in a more comprehensive way.
