Philosophy
Report
At Pediatric Orthopedic Services, we aim to provide the highest quality of care for patients. Every single patient is given the time and focus needed to fully evaulate and treat their specific needs. You will not be seen by health care extenders, medical students or residents, but will be given as much time as needed by Dr. Price, HIMSELF.
Brachial Plexus
Report
The brachial plexus is composed of several nerves from the cervical spine that coalesce at the base of the neck like a "fuse box". They intermingle to form the nerves that innervate the entire arm and shoulder. During difficult birth deliveries, this plexus of nerves can be stretched and even ruptured, producing varying degrees of paralysis.
Types of Brachial Plexus Injuries
Report
Brachial Plexus injuries occur during birth. The baby may become stuck when the head or the shoulder is unable to clear the mother's pelvic outlet. In trying to get the baby delivered before any serious breathing or circulation problem occurs, traction on the head or shoulder may stretch nerve roots.
Erb’s Palsy Injury
Report
Erb's Palsy is a condition resulting from injury during birth which affects the C5, C6, and sometimes C7 nerve roots. This type is the most common type and fortunately has the best prognosis. The children affected have full use of the hand and fingers, but the function of the shoulder, elbow and forearm are affected.
Cerebral Palsy and SPML Surgery
Report
Dr. Price and his partners offer care for children with nueromuscular lower limb disorders. For patients with lower limb disorders, traveling to a doctor's office may not be the easiest thing.
