CTS Clinical Trial
Official title:
Effect of Neck Movements on Median Nerve Longitudinal Excursion During Neurodynamic Mobilization in Patients With Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
This study will compare changes in longitudinal median nerve excursion when neck flexion and ipsilateral rotation are added to the standard Median neurodynamic test1 (MNT1) position in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) and normal controls.
Median nerve excursion will be assessed by ultrasonography during three positions: standard MNT1, neck flexion with MNT1, and ipsilateral rotation combined with MNT1. Both arms will be tested. Arm will be held in abduction to 90° - 110° and external rotation to 90°, forearm supination, elbow extension and wrist and fingers extension using a custom made splint. The standard MNT1 includes neck contralateral side flexion. Then, the researcher will move the neck passively into rotation and flexion. Passive range limit will be determined prior to testing using a goniometer and passive end feel. Movement order will be randomized using an excel random function. Every position will be tested three times. A single researcher will do all movements passively. Nerve excursion will be measured in real time by the same ultrasonographer who is blinded to patients grouping. ;
