Filter by:To determine the validity and reliability of the shorter version of the CTQ-SSS in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) undergoing nonsurgical management.
This study aims to determine the predictive value of baseline CTQ-SSS scores for progression to carpal tunnel release (CTR) surgery in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). It will be a prospective cohort study involving at least 200 patients with CTS who are undergoing nonsurgical management. Participants will complete the CTQ-SSS and other functional measures at baseline, 3 months, 6 months, and 12 months, and the primary outcome will be progression to CTR surgery. Logistic regression models will be used to assess the predictive value of baseline CTQ-SSS scores for progression to CTR surgery, adjusting for potential confounding factors such as age, sex, and baseline symptom severity. The results of this study can help clinicians identify patients who may benefit from early surgical intervention.
This is a cross-sectional study that aims to establish the test-retest reliability of two standardized tests (Jebsen-Taylor Hand Function Test and Nine-Hole Peg Test) in individuals with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). The study will involve at least 50 participants with CTS who will complete the tests twice, with a 1-week interval between the two assessments. The test-retest reliability will be assessed using intraclass correlation coefficient (ICC) and Bland-Altman plots. The study is expected to provide information on the reliability of these tests in individuals with CTS, which can help clinicians more accurately assess hand function and monitor treatment outcomes.
This study will be a Randomized controlled trial with a sample size of at least 100 individuals with carpal tunnel syndrome. Participants will be randomized to receive either thermal ultrasound, pulsed ultrasound, a combination of both, or a placebo treatment for 10 minutes, three times per week, for 4 weeks. Outcome measures will include pain intensity, functional status, and nerve conduction studies. Outcome measures will be assessed at baseline, 4 weeks, and 8 weeks.
The aim in this prospective, randomized and controlled, single-blind study; In the conservative treatment of patients diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome, to investigate the effects of neurodynamic exercises that applied with nonimmersive virtual reality technology and patient education program presented by the telerehabilitation method on pain-numbness, functional status and quality of life, to compare the effects of neurodynamic exercises that applied with traditional methods and standard education given to patients in outpatient clinic conditions on the same parameters.
The goal of this observational study is to validate a smartphone app called Angulus. The main question it aims to answer is: • Is an Angulus App valid and reliable system for masuring hand and wrist range of motion? Participants will be evaluated by goniometers which is a gold standart for range of motion assessment.
single-centre randomised prospective trial will conducted at the University Hospital of Split in Croatia. The investigators plan to enrol 100 patients, randomly assigned to suture-based wound closure (n=50) or tissue adhesive-based wound closure (n=50) with two-component skin adhesive Glubran Tiss 2®. The neurological outcomes will assessed postoperatively during the follow-up period at intervals of 2, 6, and 12 weeks respectively.
The purpose of this study is to examine: 1. The effect of neurodynamic mobilization on the sensory and motor median nerve conduction velocity in carpal tunnel syndrome. 2. The effect of neurodynamic mobilization on the wrist pain in carpal tunnel syndrome. 3. The effect of neurodynamic mobilization on the hand function in carpal tunnel syndrome.
This study seeks to perform an appropriately-powered study to evaluate any clinical difference between continuous cooling therapy and traditional ice for treatment of post-operative pain in open CTR surgery.
Participants will be randomly assigned to suture-based wound closure (n=50) or tissue adhesive-based wound closure (n=50) with two-component skin adhesive Glubran Tiss 2®. The outcomes will be assessed during the follow-up period at intervals of 2, 6, and 12 weeks postoperatively. A scar assessment will be using the POSAS (Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale) and cosmetic VAS (Visual Analog Scale). The VNRS (Verbal Number Rating Scale) will used to assess pain.
