Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, Right/Left Judgement

NCT04967144 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 200

Last updated 2022-02-22

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The discrimination of the right/left side of the body is related to the integrity of the motor and somatosensory areas at the cortical and subcortical levels. Although some studies have shown that there may be an effect on the right/left representation at the cortical and subcortical levels in cases that cause severe neuropathy and neuropathic pain, this effect has not been proven in milder neuropathies. In this study, the effect on right/left side discrimination will be investigated even in cases with carpal tunnel syndrome. Additionally, the investigators aimed to assess the relationship between right/left discrimination and symptom severity.

Conditions

  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Nerve conduction study

Participants with carpal tunnel syndrome will consist of individuals whose diagnosis has been confirmed by an electrophysiological study. Participants in the control group will consist of those who have been confirmed not to have carpal tunnel syndrome by nerve conduction study.

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

Montreal Cognitive Assessment Test

Montreal Cognitive Assessment Test evaluates eight separate cognitive functions. Thirty is the highest score. The scores equal to or above 26 are considered normal cognitive function.
