As a metod of data processing from the Munich functional developmental diagnostics was applied modification of INDIFF algorithm, which is used for component analysis of the respondents condition described as a group of variables registered through a certain period of time. The results of the initial and the final estimation on the Active movement scale were processed using decriptive analysis. Based on the statistic processing and the analysis of the data, the initial hypothesis according to which the application of the early development intervention program for infants with the brachial plexus paresis which included basic elements of neurodevelopmental therapy, stimulation sensory integration and "baby handling" and support, education and work in the family results in positive development in the psychomotor status and the extent of movent of the infant with brachial plexus paresis.
