However, little is known about the lived experiences of young adults with BPBI and their participation during this transitional phase. This Interpretive Description qualitative study was informed by the self-determination theory to guide our perspective of how transformations in the areas of autonomy, competency, and relatedness may influence participation throughout the lifespan. Semi-structured interviews with nine young adults between 19 and 34\u00a0years of age with BPBI\u2019s were conducted, transcribed, and analyzed using thematic analysis to explore their lifelong participation. There were three main themes that arose during the analysis of these interviews: Navigating everyday life, Navigating uncertainties, and Navigating BPBI identity. Within\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">navigating everyday life<\/jats:italic>\n                    participants shared narratives of how opportunities in childhood helped them figure out how to adapt to their BPBI which led to habitual adaptations in adulthood; self-awareness and self-advocacy skills evolved over time. Common experiences of\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">navigating uncertainties<\/jats:italic>\n                    during major life transitions (e.g., parenting, post-secondary studies) was expressed as a conscious process of relearning and reintegrating the impacts of BPBI. During transition to adulthood, the lived experiences of the visibility and invisibility of disability emerged as a central aspect of\n                    <jats:italic toggle=\"yes\">BPBI identity<\/jats:italic>\n                    . These narratives from the lifelong participation of adults with BPBI provide important insights to inform transitional care programming of children with BPBI within pediatric hand and upper limb clinical settings.\n                  <\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/17589983251358493","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,15]],"date-time":"2025-07-15T08:11:21Z","timestamp":1752567081000},"page":"190-199","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Upper limb participation after brachial plexus birth injury from childhood to young adulthood: A qualitative study"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"30","author":[{"given":"Shelby","family":"Rabb","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Toronto"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Laura","family":"Ireland","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Toronto"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Lexi","family":"Davidson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Toronto"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4082-1770","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Emily S","family":"Ho","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"University of Toronto"},{"name":"The Hospital for Sick Children"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,7,15]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_4_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.3389\/fneur.2023.1084223"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/BPO.0000000000001447"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_4_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/s12178-016-9374-3"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_5_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jhsa.2009.11.026"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_6_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.jhsa.2021.03.008"},{"key":"e_1_3_4_7_2","volume-title":"International Classification of Functioning, Disability and Health","author":"World Health Organization","year":"2001","unstructured":"World Health Organization.
