CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME (CTS)

This study aims to create a Turkish version of the CTS-6, a tool doctors use to diagnose carpal tunnel syndrome. Researchers will test the tool on 126 people, including healthy volunteers, those with symptoms, and those already diagnosed. The goal is to ensure the tool is accurat…

This study compares two minimally invasive treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome: pulsed radiofrequency (using electrical pulses) and hyaluronidase hydrodissection (injecting an enzyme to free the nerve). Researchers will enroll 56 adults aged 20-80 with mild to moderate carpal t…

This study tests whether dipping the hand and forearm in warm paraffin wax for 20 minutes can immediately reduce muscle stiffness and pain in people with carpal tunnel syndrome. Twenty-four adults will be randomly assigned to either the wax treatment or rest. Researchers will mea…

This study tests whether hyaluronic acid injections work as well as standard steroid shots for mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome. Sixty adults will receive one type of injection guided by ultrasound, and researchers will track symptom changes and nerve function for three mo…

This study looks at whether the angle of a wrist splint affects symptoms like pain and numbness in people with carpal tunnel syndrome. About 108 adults with mild to moderate carpal tunnel will wear a splint at one of three angles (flexed, neutral, or extended) only at night for 8…

This study looks at how well a common steroid injection works for carpal tunnel syndrome in people with type 2 diabetes compared to those without diabetes. Researchers will measure pain, hand function, and nerve health before treatment and at 4 and 12 weeks after. The goal is to …

This study compares three types of injections (steroid, ozone, and sugar water) to see which provides the best pain relief for people with mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome. About 105 adults aged 18-65 who have not responded to other treatments will take part. The goal is t…

This study tests whether a non-invasive magnetic treatment (rPMS) can reduce chronic pain in the elbow or wrist caused by tennis elbow, golfer's elbow, or carpal tunnel syndrome. About 40 adults will receive either real or fake (sham) magnetic pulses over two days. Researchers wi…

This study aims to find out if carpal tunnel release surgery is truly effective for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) by comparing it to a placebo surgery. About 96 adults with CTS will be randomly assigned to receive either the real surgery or a sham procedure, and an additional grou…

This study will test whether low-frequency magnetic field therapy (magnetotherapy) can reduce pain and improve hand function in people with mild-to-moderate carpal tunnel syndrome. Sixty adults will be randomly assigned to receive either active magnetotherapy, a placebo device, o…

This study looks at whether using a larger or smaller amount of fluid injected around the median nerve in the wrist can better relieve pain and symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome. The treatment, called hydrodissection, uses ultrasound guidance to separate the nerve from surroundi…

This study tests whether a non-invasive magnetic treatment (rPMS) can reduce pain and improve hand function in people with mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome. About 40 adults will receive either real or sham magnetic pulses over several sessions. Researchers will measure pai…

This study looks at how people make decisions about imaging tests like X-rays or MRIs for common muscle and joint issues. About 220 adults with conditions like arthritis or carpal tunnel syndrome will either have a short conversation about the test's pros and cons or read brief i…

This study uses ultrasound to measure the size and blood flow of the median nerve in people with carpal tunnel syndrome. Researchers will compare findings between diabetic and non-diabetic patients to see if there are differences. The goal is to better understand how the nerve ch…

This study looks at whether improvements in the first few weeks of hand rehabilitation can predict how well patients will recover months later. Researchers will track 60 adults with various hand or arm injuries using a digital system that records progress during routine therapy. …
