N2  - Back ground: Many children who sustain birth injuries to the brachial  plexus suffer significant functional limitations due to various sequelae affecting the shoulder, elbow, forearm and hand. Aim: To investigate the  effect of home based treatment program evaluated by the electroneurography of the affected arm in Erbs' palsy children. Subjects and methods: Thirty children with Erbs' palsy from both gender ranging in age from 6 to 12 months were assigned into two groups of equal  number. The control group (group A) received selected physical therapy program, and the study group (group B) received home based program in addition to the same selected physical therapy program as in group (A).  Percent of degeneration using EMG was recorded from biceps muscles before and after the treatment program. Results: The results revealed no  significant difference when comparing the pretreatment mean values of the two groups (study& control), while a significant difference was recorded between the two groups after treatment in favour of the study group. Conclusion: The result of the study suggests that home based  program has positive effect in the treatment of Erbs' palsy in infants
