Erb's Palsy
Erb's Palsy

Hi, I'm treating a girl with birth palsy (right) aged 11. She is able to abduct her right shoulder actively to 90 degrees and can abduct to 160 if assisted. She has been taught resisted exercises for shoulder abductors. Electrical stimulation is not yet started. Please suggest me the mode of current and the method of stimulation to treat this patient and any other mode of treatment to increase her active abduction.
