Transctunaous Pulsed Radiofrequency Therapy in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Status Active, not recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

The aim of this study is to examine the effect of transcutaneous pulsed radiofrequency current in the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome.

Clinical Trial Description

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common peripheral neuropathy. Wrist splint is the first-line treatment option for CTS. Pulsed radiofrequency therapy is used in the treatment of chronic pain. 60 carpal tunnel syndrome patients diagnosed with electroneuromyelography will be included in the study. 30 patients will wear wrist splints for 1 month. In the other 30 patients, pulsed radiofrequency current will be given through the wrist median nerve trace. RF current will be applied through transcutaneous pads. It will be applied once a week for a total of 2 sessions, 8 minutes each. Boston carpal tunnel syndrome questionnaire with visual analog scale (VAS) will be applied to all patients before and after the treatment at 1 week and 1 month. Our aim is to compare the effectiveness of wrist splint and pulsed rf therapy. ;
