"Ultrasound Measures and Clinical Outcomes in Healthy Individuals, Mild and Moderate Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Patients"

NCT07408596 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 75

Summary

"This study aims to investigate ultrasonographic parameters of the median nerve in healthy individuals and patients with mild and moderate carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS).

Specifically, investigator will assess the cross-sectional area (CSA) at the proximal carpal tunnel and the wrist/forearm ratio (WFR), and determine their diagnostic thresholds.

İnvestigators will also evaluate correlations between these ultrasound measures and clinical and electrophysiological findings, including pain, symptom severity, functional status, and quality of life (Visual Analog Scale, Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire, SF-36).

Conditions

Interventions

DIAGNOSTIC_TEST

ultrasound

"We aim to determine whether carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) can be accurately diagnosed using ultrasonographic parameters alone, and to what extent ultrasound-based parameters are consistent with electrodiagnostic (EMG) findings. Additionally, we seek to evaluate how the ultrasound parameters correlate with clinical outcomes, including functional status, quality of life, and pain severity."
