Summary

The aim of the study is to examine the effects of ESWT applications at different pulse rates on pain, function, grip strength and median nerve conduction velocity in patients with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome. The patients will be randomly divided into 3 groups: the low dose ESWT group (28), the high dose ESWT group (28), and the control group (28). The first two groups will receive ESWT treatment at different doses, while the control group will be treated with sound only (1 time/week-3 weeks).
