Filter by:The goal of study is to convert Disabilities Of The Arm, Shoulder And Hand Questionnaire into Urdu and test its reliability and validity among the Pakistani citizens. Also check its correlation with Boston carpal tunnel syndrome questionnaire and visual analogue scale as well.
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 amyloidosis and its evaluation as a predictive factor of cardiac amyloidosis
This study would be conducted to answer the following question: was there any difference between the effects of Shock wave versus Kinesio Tape in the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome for post-menopausal women.
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).
When the other usage areas of the manual lymphatic drainage technique in the literature, except for the treatment of lymphedema, were examined recently, it was seen that it was also applied in orthopedic and neurological cases in a limited number of studies. The aim of our study is to investigate the effectiveness of manual lymphatic drainage on clinical and electrophysiological findings in carpal tunnel syndrome
Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most commonly appearing entrapment neuropathy of the upper extremity. Treatment options include both non-operative and surgical methods. Surgical treatment, carpal tunnel release (CTR), involves division of the transverse carpal ligament. Surgery can be done under an axillary- or intravenous block, or local or general anaesthesia. There are no randomised controlled trials comparing local infiltration anaesthesia with or without a distal median nerve block in carpal tunnel release. The aim of the study is to investigate whether a distal median nerve block, in addition to local anaesthesia in carpal tunnel release, reduces pain during and after the procedure. The null hypothesis is that the use of distal median nerve block with local anaesthesia does not reduce pain after CTR compared to pure local anaesthesia. This trial is a randomised controlled trial involving patients with carpal tunnel syndrome. Patients will be randomized into two study groups: local anaesthesia and local with a distal median nerve block. Fifty-nine patients will be needed for each group to have adequate power. The primary outcome is the pain level after the procedure for 72 hours using visual analogue scale. The secondary outcomes include expected pain; pain during the injection of the anaesthetic solution caused by pressure, burning, needle sting, and total pain; worst pain during the surgery; duration of anaesthesia; number of experienced needle stings; Boston Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Questionnaire; pain killer consumption, patient satisfaction, and safety . There are no prior randomised controlled trials (RCT) comparing local infiltration anaesthesia to local infiltration anaesthesia augmented with a distal median nerve block in CTR. Distal median block in CTR is believed to reduce pain intra- and postoperatively. However, the superiority of distal median block with local anaesthesia compared to pure local anaesthesia alone has not been proven.
Evaluation of potential nerve damage after radial CAG/PCI.
The goal of this study is to compare the effects of Kinesiotaping and Active Release Technique in patients with CTS to see which method is better for improving Pain, Grip Strength, Range of Motion and functional disability.
Comparing efficacy of hyalase and midazolam in median nerve entrapement neuropathy
The aim of this study, using two different injection techniques, 1. To evaluate the patients in terms of the pain they feel during the application of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) injection, 2. Evaluation in terms of undesirable effects developing after injection, 3. To evaluate the degree of pain/drowsiness, symptom severity and functionality, and median nerve diameter at the end of the first month after the injection, and to evaluate the relationship of these parameters with the pain felt by the patients during the injection.
