Overview
Brief Summary
The aim of this study was to investigate the foot plantar pressure behavior alterations during gait for children with obstetric brachial plexus (OBBP). 19 children with OBBP and 10 healthy children will be included in the study. The inclusion criteria of the study were to be between the ages of 7-15, not have a history of surgery or botox in the last 6 months, and not have any other disease. Foot plantar pressures of all participants will be analyzed with a pedobarography device. For arm swing analysis, a video camera will be recorded during walking and arm flexion/extension angles will be measured with Kinovea software.
