No results posted yet for this study

Summary

PRP represents a promising, nonsurgical option for patients with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) with improvement in symptoms compared to placebo, conservative treatment, and local corticosteroid injections at 3-months postintervention. However, the lack of significant long-term results in pain and function demands the presence of future studies to further determine the long-term effect on a large group of homogeneous patients. More over to determine the clinical indications, effect on differing CTS severities, and the effects of preparation, concentration of the platelets and methods of activation of PRP

Conditions

  • Carpal Tunnel Syndrome
  • Compare Steroids Versus PRP in Dissection of Median Nerve by Ultrasound

Interventions

DRUG

platelet rich plasma

The patients hand will be facing upwards and slightly extended, the Median nerve will be identified at the inlet of the carpal tunnel. Ultrasound guided injection will be done with the use of the ulnar in-plane technique. with a 25-gage needle will be introduced from the ulnar side of the wrist between carpal tunnel and median nerve.
