CARPAL TUNNEL SYNDROME

This study aims to translate a carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) questionnaire from English to Thai and check if it works well for Thai patients. Researchers will enroll 80 adults with confirmed CTS at Siriraj Hospital. The goal is to provide a reliable, easy-to-use tool for doctors i…

This study compares two treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome: an ultrasound-guided injection around the median nerve and a small-incision surgery to release the nerve. Researchers will enroll 60 people with mild to severe carpal tunnel and measure their pain and symptoms at 4 an…

This study looks at how long symptom relief lasts after a corticosteroid injection in people with carpal tunnel syndrome who have normal or mild nerve test results. Researchers will review past data from 300 patients who received the injection and filled out a questionnaire about…

This study tests a device worn on the wrist during sleep that applies gentle, on-and-off pressure to help relieve carpal tunnel syndrome. Researchers will compare symptom and function reports from 116 adults who use the device against standard care. The goal is to see if this sim…

This study tests whether taking a combination of alpha-lipoic acid, vitamin E, and B vitamins can safely reduce pain, numbness, and improve hand function in people with carpal tunnel syndrome after surgery. About 84 adults will be randomly assigned to receive the supplement mix o…

This study tests whether high-intensity laser therapy (HILT) can reduce pain and improve hand function in people with mild-to-moderate carpal tunnel syndrome. Eighty adults will receive either real or sham laser treatments, plus a wrist splint. Researchers will measure pain, nerv…

This study tests whether a long-acting local anesthetic called Exparel, combined with education about pain management, can help patients avoid using opioids after carpal tunnel release surgery. About 64 adults with carpal tunnel syndrome will be split into two groups: one gets Ex…

This study looks at whether adding a nerve block to standard local anesthesia can lower pain after carpal tunnel release surgery. About 118 adults with carpal tunnel syndrome will take part. Researchers will measure pain levels for 72 hours after the procedure to see if the extra…

This study tests whether using a robotic arm to guide an ultrasound probe makes carpal tunnel injections more accurate and less painful than the standard manual method. Twenty adults with moderate to severe carpal tunnel syndrome will receive a corticosteroid injection either by …

This study tests if a new needle procedure can help people with carpal tunnel syndrome. The treatment combines releasing a tight wrist ligament with injecting a sugar-water solution around the nerve. About 102 adults with moderate symptoms will be followed to see if the combinati…

This study tests whether a gentle brain stimulation technique (tDCS combined with ultrasound) can reduce chronic pain in people with carpal tunnel syndrome. Researchers will compare active stimulation to a sham (fake) treatment in 95 adults aged 18–80 who have had pain for at lea…

This study compares a continuous cooling therapy device to traditional ice packs for pain relief after open carpal tunnel surgery. About 128 adults having the procedure will rate their pain and hand function. The goal is to see if the cooling device offers better pain control.

This study looks at whether a common heart procedure (using the wrist artery to treat blocked heart vessels) can damage nerves in the hand. Researchers will check 400 patients for signs of carpal tunnel syndrome or other nerve problems. The goal is to understand the risk and help…

This study looks at how carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) affects sleep quality. Researchers will compare 120 people with CTS to healthy volunteers using ultrasound and sleep questionnaires. The goal is to understand the link between nerve compression and poor sleep, without offering …
