Treatment Intervention of Patients With Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS)

Status Completed

Clinical Trial Summary

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of KT versus TENS combining self-myofascial stretching in treatment of CTS through clinical, functional assessment and sensory measurements. Primary hypothesis The KT group has a more substantial improvement in hand grip, pain relief, enhancing proprioceptive sensitivity and dexterity compare to the TENS group. treatment program,

Clinical Trial Description

Objective: To compare the effectiveness of a home-based treatment program involving Kinesio taping (KT) or transcutaneous electrical nerve stimulation (TENS) among carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) patients. Methods: 30 participants with CTS were enrolled, age range, 30 to 60 years. The participants who met the inclusion criteria were randomized into one of two treatment groups: KT group and TENS group. Participants were blinded to the treatments used in the other group. Patients with CTS received aforementioned treatments compared with reliable qualitative and quantitative evaluation tools before and after 4-week treatment, as well as at a additional 4-week follow-up. The main parameters include the Symptom Severity Scale (SSS) and Functional Status Scale (FSS), hand grip and key pinch strengths, two-point discrimination (2PD), Modified Moberg pick-up test (MMPUT), and Pain assessment (visual analog scale, VAS). ;
