Summary: Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is the most common nerve entrapment syndrome worldwide. There are currently no studies examining the effectiveness of corticosteroid injections in patients with normal (negative) EMG studies. The purpose of this study is to gain a better understanding of the duration of symptom improvement post corticosteroid injection in patients with negative or mild EMG studies. The...

Summary: Study to compare the safety and effectiveness of carpal tunnel release with ultrasound guidance (CTR-US) vs. mini-open carpal tunnel release (mOCTR) in patients with symptomatic carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS).

Summary: Systemic transthyretin amyloidosis is an aging-related disorder. It is usually associated with cardiac disease but also extends to other organs. Recent studies found that idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome patients may have amyloid deposition in tenosynovial tissue. The main aims of this project are the characterization of the association between idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome and transthyretin ...

Summary: This trial seeks to use the long acting local anesthetic Exparel, in conjunction with opioid education, to attempt to avoid any post-operative opioid use following carpal tunnel surgery. This group will be compared with a standard group that receives non-liposomal bupivacaine, opioid education, and opioids.

Summary: To investigate the influence of low intensity pulsed ultrasound on Pain level, pinch grip strength, sensory distal latency of the median nerve, motor distal latency of the median nerve and hand function in patients with chronic carpal tunnel syndrome

Summary: STC is considered one of the most prevalent peripheral neuropathy of the upper quadrant. Systematic review shows that conservative treatment is effective for treatment of CTS. In Spain, most patients diagnosed by CTS are included in surgery list without considering conservative treatment as first option or providing drugs or night splint . However, surgical treatment is not always necessary for th...

Summary: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a common mononeuropathy due to entrapment of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel. a lot of modalities are available for treatment of mild to moderate CTS.

Summary: Diabetic painful peripheral neuropathy (DPN) constitutes a serious threat to the outcomes of patients with diabetes. Yet, the treatments for targeting the underlying nerve damage and relieving pain are limited. The low-intensity focused ultrasound (LIFU) has been demonstrated to regulate neuronal activity without any concomitant tissue damage. Studies in animal models have shown that LIFU could pr...

Summary: This study is investigating the effect of using a regional interdependence approach of managing non-structural elbow pain with physical therapy.

Summary: Introduction Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common peripheral nerve entrapment syndrome in Finland and worldwide. Nowadays carpal tunnel release (CTR) surgery is often done in local anaesthesia. Often the most painful event during CTR is the injection of the local anaesthetic. Multiple different methods have been trialed and buffering the local anaesthetic seems to have good results in r...

Summary: The design of our study is a randomized, controlled, double-blind study. It is planned to be completed in twenty-four weeks with 34 participants. The main purpose of this study is to examine and compare the acute effects of two different kinesio tape applications on the carpal tunnel in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome by ultrasonographic method.

Summary: Identify the efficacy of difference procedures of imaging guidance for needles for interventional treatments of low back pain (LBP) associated with sciatica and to study results and satisfaction of the patients between different groups.
