Nerve compression syndrome

This study looks at whether a person's body weight affects the accuracy of ultrasound for diagnosing carpal tunnel syndrome. Researchers will measure the median nerve size with ultrasound and compare it to standard nerve tests in 120 adults. The goal is to see if weight 'masks' t…

Plantar fasciitis causes heel pain when the tissue supporting the foot arch degenerates. Standard treatments like physical therapy, anti-inflammatory drugs, and orthotics help most people, but some continue to have pain for months. Researchers are testing three ultrasound-guided …

This study compares a minimally invasive ultrasound-guided injection to standard open surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome. 72 adults who have not improved with conservative treatments will be randomly assigned to receive either the injection or surgery. The main goal is to see if …

This trial compares surgery to physiotherapy for people with persistent median nerve compression in the upper arm. 160 adults will be randomly assigned to either a nerve release operation or guided stretching exercises. The main goal is to see which treatment leads to better symp…

This study compares three different wrist splint positions (flexed, neutral, and extended) worn at night for eight weeks in 108 adults with mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome. All participants also receive education and exercises. The goal is to see which position best reduc…

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

This study tests whether 4-aminopyridine, a drug already approved for other nerve conditions, can improve symptoms of carpal tunnel syndrome or delay the need for surgery. Researchers will give 160 adults either the drug or a placebo for 6 weeks and track symptom changes using ha…

This study looks at whether early ultrasound scans of burn scars can predict which patients will have persistent pain 3 to 6 months later. Researchers will measure scar thickness, blood flow, and nerve involvement in 150 adults with blast or drone-related burns. The goal is to id…
