Diacutaneous Fibrolysis is a manual method of treatment, addressed to mechanical pain of the
neuromusculoskeletal system. In the clinical practice a favorable effect is observed in
patients with carpal tunnel syndrome, but there is no published studies evaluating the
results os this technique.
The objective of this trial is to evaluate if Diacutaneous Fibrolysis is more effective in
symptoms, function, grip, mechanosensitivity and neural conduction velocity compared to a
placebo.
For this purpose the investigators conduct a randomized controlled trial double-blind
(patient and examiner). The investigators included patients diagnosed of carpal tunnel
syndrome (low to moderate intensity) with a neurophysiological test.
Patients included are randomized into 2 groups one receive Diacutaneous Fibrolysis and the
other placebo. Both groups receive 5 treatment sessions.
The variables are measured at the beginning and end of treatment. And also some variables are
measured before and after each session. Patients who participated in placebo group, when the
intervention finish the investigators will be given the opportunity to receive the actual
technique

Primary | Intensity symptoms pre-intervention with a visual analogic scale | The investigators measure the intensity of symptoms with a visual analogic scale at baseline. | pre-intervention | |
Primary | Intensity symptoms post-intervention with a visual analogic scale | The investigators measure the intensity of symptoms with a visual analogic scale at the end of the intervention (2 weeks after pre-intervention) the investigators measured the intensity of symptoms (through study completion, an average 15 days) | post-intervention | |
Primary | Intensity symptoms after month with a visual analogic scale | The investigators measure the intensity of symptoms with a visual analogic scale after month of post-intervention. | after month | |
Secondary | Upper limb function pre-intervention with a validated questionnaire (DASH) | The investigators measure upper limb function with a validated questionnaire (DASH), at baseline. | pre-intervention | |
Secondary | Mechanosensitivity of median nerve pre-intervention with neurodynamic test | The investigators measure the mechanosensitivity of median nerve with neurodynamic test at baseline. | Pre-intervention | |
Secondary | Mechanosensitivity of median nerve post-intervention with neurodynamic test | The investigators measure the mechanosensitivity of median nerve with neurodynamic test at the end of the intervention (through study completion, an average 15 days). | post-intervention | |
Secondary | Neurophysiological test pre-intervention | The investigators measure the neurophysiological properties of median nerve with electroneurogram with the neural conduction velocity at baseline | pre-intervention | |
Secondary | Neurophysiological test post-intervention | The investigators measure the neurophysiological properties of median nerve with electroneurogram with the neural conduction velocity at the end of the intervention (through study completion, an average 15 days) | post-intervention | |
Secondary | Upper limb function post-intervention with a validated questionnaire (DASH) | The investigators measure upper limb function with a validated questionnaire (DASH) at the end of the intervention (through study completion, an average 15 days) | post-intervention | |
Secondary | Upper limb function after month with a validated questionnaire (DASH) | The investigators measure upper limb function with a validated questionnaire (DASH) after a month post-intervention. | after month |
