The goal of this clinical trial is to analyze the immediate effect of manual mobilization techniques of the carpal bones on the median nerve, in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome. The main question it aims to answer is whether there is an immediate positive effect on the electrophysiological variables of …
Carpal tunnel syndrome is a set of symptoms and signs caused by compression of the median nerve within the carpal tunnel. The prevalence in the general population is about 3.72%, with a rising trend, making it the most common peripheral nerve entrapment syndrome. Compared to conservative treatment, surgical treatment has …
Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is a common condition that causes numbness, tingling, pain, and weakness in the hand due to compression of the median nerve at the wrist. It can affect daily activities, work performance, and quality of life. While surgery is effective in severe cases, many patients with mild …
The Scratch Collapse Test (SCT) is a neurocutaneous reflex used to detect peripheral nerve compression in nerve tunnel syndromes. It first involves applying a sensory stimulus to the skin over the suspected nerve compression point, then bilaterally testing the strength of a specific muscle in the patient. Compression is then …
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most commonly appearing entrapment neuropathy of the upper extremity. Treatment options include both non-operative and operative methods. Surgical treatment, carpal tunnel release (CTR), involves division of the transverse carpal ligament. Surgery can be performed under axillary or intravenous block, or general anaesthesia. There are …
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common nerve compression syndrome worldwide, causing significant chronic pain, functional impairment, and lowered quality of life for individuals of various backgrounds. CTS is caused by chronic compression of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel of the wrist, causing numbness and pain in …
This case-control study aims to investigate the effects of occupational hand-arm vibration exposure on median and ulnar nerve functions in tattoo artists. Chronic exposure to vibration generated by tattoo machines may lead to neurosensory impairment, reduced tactile sensitivity, and decreased hand strength. Objective assessments including nerve provocation tests, sensory threshold …
Patients operated for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) at Ålesund Hospital (200 patients) will have a biopsy to diagnose ATTR amyloidosis. Patients with positive biopsy will be examined to decide wether they have cardiac amyloidosis. All patients with positive biopsy will be followed closely for 10 years wit echocardiography an clinically.
Effectiveness of corticosteroid and 5% dextrose versus USG-guided ozone injections in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome: Three blind randomized studies
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a common musculoskeletal disorder, which is caused by compression of the median nerve as it travels through the wrist. There are several treatments for CTS, including conservative and surgical options. Though local corticosteroid injection has been considered more effective than physical therapy for treatment of …
