Abstract:

Background: Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is the most common entrapment neuropathy. The symptoms of CTS include pain,paraesthesia and hypoesthesia in the hand, in the area innervated by the median nerve, and often occurs or worsens during the night or earlymorning, waking the patient up. Physical examination and nerve conduction studies are used to diagnose this condition. Early diagnosis andtreatment of CTS are important because any delay can cause irreversible median nerve damage. Objective: To highlight the role of physicalexamination and nerve conduction study in the diagnosis of CTS. Setting: Kuwait teaching Hospital Peshawar. Period: June 2008 to June2010. Methods: Fifty patients of carpal tunnel syndrome were studied. All patients who reported numbness and/or tingling in the median nervedistribution in the hands at least twice weekly during the preceding four weeks were enrolled to undergo clinical examination and nerveconduction tests. Following the clinical examination the symptomatic persons underwent bilateral nerve conduction tests. Results: Out of thesetwelve patients were males and thirty eight were females with a ratio of 1:3.1. The age range was between 20 to 60 years. CTS was bilateral in 22patients (44%), right-sided in 23(46%) patients and left-sided in 5(10%) patients. Conclusions: In addition to the clinical presentation,electrophysiology has been proposed as the standard of care for diagnosing CTS with a recommendation that it should be performed in allcases.

Abstract:

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is a condition that affects the hands and fingers. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) can cause symptoms in the form of tingling, pain, burning, or numbness in the fingers and hands. Complaints of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) cause losses due to the work done. Complaints of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) can be caused by several factors including work attitude, length of work and work period. This study aims to identify the factors associated with complaints of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) in public transportation drivers in Lubuk Pakam. This study uses an analytical survey with a cross sectional approach. The sample in this study was public transportation drivers in Lubuk Pakam as many as 32 respondents with purposive sampling method using the chi square test with a 95% confidence level = (0.05).

Abstract:

ABSTRACTWe present a case of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) due to compression of the median nerve within the carpal tunnel, caused by cysticercosis. Nerve conduction studies revealed severe CTS. Magnetic resonance imaging suggested an inflammatory mass compressing the median nerve in carpal tunnel. The histological diagnosis was consistent with cysticercosis. The case resolved with conservative treatment. Such solitary presentation of entrapment median neuropathy as CTS caused by cysticercosis is extremely rare. To our knowledge, this is the only case of its kind reported in literature till date.

Abstract:

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) is a neuropathy disease that affects the median nerve with an incidence of around 90%. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome appears in 3.8% of the general population, with the highest prevalence occurring in women. There are several risk factors associated with CTS, namely medical and non-medical factors. The mechanism of carpal tunnel syndrome until now is still very complex and is not known with certainty, but compression and traction factors in the median nerve are thought to be the most common cause of CTS. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome can manifest clinically with subjective signs such as paresthesia, proprioceptive changes, and paresis, as well as objective signs, such as changes in motor sensitivity and function, positive Tinel and Phallen tests, and thenar muscle atrophy. The diagnosis of Carpal Tunnel Syndrome is based on the classic symptoms of pain, numbness, tingling, and/or burning sensation in the distribution of the median nerve in the hand, as well as the abnormal function of the median nerve based on nerve conduction studies. Conservative therapy is an option. Especially in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome patients with mild to moderate symptoms. Conservative therapy can be given in the form of corticosteroid and physical therapy. Patients with severe CTS or whose symptoms have not improved after four to six months of conservative therapy should be considered for surgical treatment.

Abstract:

Clinical and electrophysiological features were studied in 52 cases of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) associated with 30 pregnancies. The duration of symptoms was less than 3 months before electrodiagnosis was performed. This study revealed a higher incidence of persistent, painful diurnal symptoms in pregnancy-related CTS (PRCTS) than in idiopathic CTS. PRCTS usually occurs for the first time (de novo) (24/30 cases), in primigravidas (15 cases) as well as multigravidas. The onset of symptoms was in the first or second trimester in 11 women, the third trimester in 12 women, or the post-partum period in seven women. Nerve conduction studies demonstrated evidence of an acute median nerve lesion at the wrist with motor and/or sensory conduction blocks in 20/30 women and severe denervation signs in five women.

Abstract:

Objective Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is common in patients with acromegaly, with a reported prevalence of 19–64%. We studied CTS in a large national cohort of patients with acromegaly and the temporal relationship between the two diagnoses. Design Retrospective, nationwide, cohort study including patients diagnosed with acromegaly in Sweden, 2005–2017, identified in the Swedish Healthcare Registries. Methods CTS (diagnosis and surgery in specialised healthcare) was analysed from 8.5 years before the diagnosis of acromegaly until death or end of the study. Standardised incidence ratios (SIRs) with 95% CIs were calculated for CTS with the Swedish population as reference. Results The analysis included 556 patients with acromegaly (50% women) diagnosed at mean (s.d.) age 50.1 (15.0) years. During the study period, 48 patients were diagnosed with CTS and 41 patients underwent at least one CTS surgery. In the latter group, 35 (85%) were operated for CTS before the acromegaly diagnosis; mean interval (range) 2.2 (0.3–8.5) years and the SIR for having CTS surgery before the diagnosis of acromegaly was 6.6 (4.8–8.9). Women with acromegaly had a higher risk for CTS than men (hazard ratio: 2.5, 95% CI: 1.3–4.7). Conclusions Patients with acromegaly had a 6-fold higher incidence for CTS surgery before the diagnosis of acromegaly compared with the general population. The majority of patients with both diagnoses were diagnosed with CTS prior to acromegaly. Increased awareness of signs of acromegaly in patients with CTS might help to shorten the diagnostic delay in acromegaly, especially in women.

Abstract:

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a condition characterised by a collection of signs and symptoms indicative of focal median nerve dysfunction within the anatomical confines of the carpal tunnel at the wrist. The syndrome appears to be multifactorial in its aetiology. It has been asociated with certain systemic disorders, (e. g. Diabetes Mellitus, Acromegaly), factors related specifically to the movements and actions of the wrists and hands, (e.g., repetitive manual work, prolonged pinching and grasping and the use of vibratory hand held tools) and other conditions or characteristics which are systemic in nature but do not necessarily represent diseases (e. g. pregnancy, side effects to certain drugs). Recent reports suggest that vitamin B6 deficiency might play a role in the development of CTS. A review of the literature has shown there to be a paucity of analytical epidemiological data concerning these hypothesized risk factors. A study was therefore undertaken to investigate the association between a set of risk factors identified in the literature, (including low vitamin B6 status) and CTS. The study design selected was that of a pair matched case-control study. In this way, associations between aspects of CTS, aspects of vitamin B6 status and other hypothesized risk factors were examined. Thirty four cases were identified (electrophysiologically) and these were matched (for sex and age +/-3 years) with controls attending physiotherapy departments for accidental injuries involving the lower half of the body. Data were collected at interview, examination, and using a self administered questionnaire. Venous blood samples were also obtained from 32 cases and 20 controls. Vitamin B6 status was assessed using an enzyme stimulation assay, (Erythrocyte Glutamate Oxaloacetic Transaminase or EGOT). No statistically significant differences between the cases and controls regarding any aspects of vitamin B6 status were evident. These findings were confirmed by comparison with a group of fifty healthy volunteer subjects, (university staff). The need for further elucidation regarding the possible role of vitamin B6 in the treatment is highlighted. Cases statistically outnumbered controls with respect to the performance of repetitive manual work (p=0.019; exposure odds ratio = 5.0) and participation in leisure pursuits (p=0.03; exposure odds ratio = 2.75) involving the use of the hands. This supports the findings of other studies reported in the literature. The cases reported significantly more oedema (p=0.04; exposure odds ratio 3.0) and stiffness, (p=0.001) than the controls. A significant impairment in the range of movement of the index finger was noted. Certain of these symptoms have been reported to occur in groups of CTS sufferers and improve upon vitamin B6 therapy. The implications of these and other findings are discussed in the light of the current knowledge of the many hypothesized risk factors.

Abstract:

Bakgrund: Karpaltunnelsyndrom är den vanligaste typen av perifera nervinklämningar och orsakas av att medianusnerven blir klämd i karpaltunneln. De symtom som kännetecknar karpaltunnelsyndrom är nattliga domningar och smärta i hand och fingrar. Syfte: Att undersöka effekt och evidens för nervmobilisering som behandling vid karpaltunnelsyndrom. Metod: Sökningar genomfördes i databaserna PudMed, PEDro, CINAHL, AMED och Scopus med målet att identifiera randomiserade kontrollerade studier där nervmobilisering som behandling vid karpaltunnelsyndrom undersökts. Inkluderade artiklar kvalitetsgranskades enligt PEDro och de med hög kvalitet evidensgraderades enligt GRADEstud. Resultat: Nio studier inkluderades i översikten. I alla studier observerades en positiv effekt av nervmobilisering avseende symtom och/eller funktion och en signifikant skillnad sågs mellan grupperna i 7 av 9 studier. Sex av nio studier hade hög kvalitet och tre hade låg kvalitet enligt PEDro-skalan. Evidensgraderingen visade att nervmobilisering som behandling vid karpaltunnelsyndrom har måttligt hög tillförlitlighet (+++). Små studier med få deltagare resulterade i ett poängs avdrag för bristande precision. Slutsats: Nervmobilisering tycks ge positiva effekter på funktion och symtom vid karpaltunnelsyndrom och har enligt GRADEstud måttligt hög tillförlitlighet. Nervmobilisering kan ge effekt även på lång sikt och kan minska behovet av operation men fler större studier med god kvalitet behövs för att kunna bekräfta detta. Nyckelord: Carpal tunnel syndrome, CTS, neural mobilization, nerve gliding
Background: Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common type of peripheral neuropathy caused by compression of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel. The condition is characterized by night time tingling and pain in the hand and fingers. Objective: The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects and evidence of neural mobilization as a treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome. Methods: Searches were made in the databases PubMed, PEDro, CINAHL, AMED and Scopus to try and find randomized controlled trials that investigated neural mobilization as treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome. All of the included articles were appraised by the PEDro-scale and the level of evidence was graded using GRADEstud. Results: Nine studies were included in this review. In all of the included studies a positive effect could be seen by neural mobilization on symptoms and/or function with a significant difference between groups in seven out of the nine studies. Six out of the nine studies had high quality and three had low quality according to the PEDro-scale. The grading of evidence showed that neural mobilization as treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome has a moderately high level of evidence (+++). Few studies with few participants resulted in one point deduction for lack of precision. Conclusion: Neural mobilization could have positive effects on symptoms and function in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome and has a moderately high level of evidence according to GRADEstud. Neural mobilization may have positive effects long term and could reduce need for surgery but more high quality research is needed to confirm this. Key words: Carpal tunnel syndrome, CTS, neural mobilization, nerve gliding.

Abstract:

Includes bibliographical references.
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a common occupational injury that is caused by an increase in pressure within the carpal tunnel structure which, in turn, causes compression of the median nerve. Although several factors are believed to be associated with increased risk of CTS, the direct causes of this injury remain unknown and it is generally accepted that CTS, with the exception of acutely caused CTS, is a multifactorial condition. Although it is generally accepted that an increase in pressure within the carpal tunnel structure, which contains nine flexor tendons, causes compression of the median nerve, the involvement of these tendons and other connective tissue structures in the aetiology of CTS cannot be excluded. In support of this, pathology of these connective structures have been proposed as being comorbid conditions or a precursor of CTS, cause CTS and/or can lead to an increase in carpal tunnel pressure. Several studies have suggested that specific non-occupational risk factors, such as anatomical, systemic and chronic factors as well as mostly repetition- and force-related occupational risk factors are associated with CTS. Although genetic influences in the aetiology of CTS have been proposed, this area has received little attention. Common DNA sequence variants on the other hand have previously been reported to associate with common exercise-associated tendon, such as chronic Achilles tendinopathy, and ligament injuries. The aim of this thesis was to determine whether common DNA sequence variants within several genes that have been associated or implicated in the aetiology of exercise-related musculoskeletal soft tissue injuries, are associated with altered risk of CTS by using a genetic association case-control study approach.

Abstract:

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) presentation is usually classic but cold-related Raynaud's phenomenon (RP)-like symptoms were described in CTS and more commonly in the injured hand (HI). The work presented in this thesis is divided into two domains; the first aims to extend understanding of the response of the hand to cold in CTS and HI using two processes. [1] The modified cold provocation test (CPT) validated in a group of controls and both primary and secondary (vibration induced) RP subjects. Both hands were immersed in a 12°C water bath and the digital temperature recorded every 6 seconds using thermocouples until the digital temperature dropped to 15°C. The hands were then removed and allowed to passively re-warm. Baseline temperature (difference between the ambient temperature and the digital temperature), T30sec (temperature gain in the first 30 seconds post-cooling) and T5°C (time required to gain 5°C) were assessed. [2] Laser Doppler Imaging (LDI), a well-established method for investigating skin microcirculation with an endothelial challenge (facilitated by iontophoresis delivery Sodium Nitroprusside and Acetylcholine). The second domain centred on the management of CTS and in particular outcome assessment of conservative versus surgical treatment in registrar and nurse practitioner CTS clinics in a community hospital. Data on 86 controls, 31 primary RP and 59 secondary RP were collected. In the control group the baseline temperature was >6°C, which was higher than the primary and secondary RP groups (p-value <0.05, sensitivity 79%, 78%, specificity 43%, 45%, inter-class correlation 53%, 49%); T30sec in secondary RP was >1.8°C, which was higher than controls and the primary RP groups (p value <0.001, sensitivity 70%, 71%, specificity 76%, 79%, inter-class correlation 3%, 40%); and T5°C in primary RP was >300 seconds, which was longer than that of the controls and secondary RP groups (p-value <0.001, sensitivity 64%, 61%, specificity 70%, 64%, inter-class correlation 70%, 70%); data given for left and right hands respectively. CPT and LDI studies were undertaken on 60 controls and 60 CTS patients pre-operatively and repeated on 40 subjects 5-7 months post-decompression. Post-operatively, the baseline temperature increased by 1.5°C (p-value <0.05) in both hands and 2.5°C (p-value <0.001) in the median nerve supplied digits, T5oC was reduced in the hands (pre- versus post-operative from 474 to 348 seconds) (p-value 0.06) and from 468 to 273 seconds in the median nerve supplied digits (p-value 0.01). Endothelial dependent and independent control at mean and maximum pre- and post-cooling perfusion was significantly depressed (p value 0.05) post-cold exposure in the control group. LDI limited to the dorsum of the hand identified no significant difference pre- and post-operatively (p-value >0.05). HI subject recruitment was challenging: the absence of a financial incentive and the possible income loss during working days for a young working cohort might have contributed to the poor recruitment. Of the 60 subject targets only 14 recruited and the injury severity varied widely between the recruits; the data gathered through CPT and LDI in this group did not show a significant difference from that collected in controls. CTS management audits on 74 subjects in a nurse-led clinic and 173 subjects in a registrar-led clinic identified a high failure rate of the conservative management (60%) at 6 months follow up in both clinics with unclear success predictors suggesting an extra burden on clinics providing decompression surgery.

Abstract:

Wrist surgery is a common method for treating carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) although few studies have examined patient outcomes or predictive correlates of such procedures. The objectives of this study were to characterize Utah workers who received surgery for CTS in terms of relevant presurgical and outcome variables and to identify presurgical correlates of patient outcomes. Participants were 75 Utah workers' compensation patients who underwent surgery for CTS from 1999-2002 and were at least 6 months postsurgery at time of follow-up. A retrospective cohort design was utilized consisting of a review of presurgical medical records and a postsurgical telephone survey. Presurgical variables included: gender, age, history of depression, and litigation status. Correlational analyses revealed that age and lawyer involvement were consistent significant predictors of poorer outcomes. The importance of conceptualizing CTS surgery patient outcomes from a biopsychosocial perspective is discussed.

Abstract:

Carpal tunnel syndrome is a frequently encountered chronic peripheral nerve entrapment disorder caused by mechanical insult to the median nerve, which may occur from impingement by the surrounding digital flexor tendons and the tunnel boundaries. Anatomic finite element models of the carpal tunnel provide a method to evaluate the potential contact stresses that may develop on the median nerve between the digital flexor tendons and tunnel boundaries. Realistic finite element simulations are dependent upon the use of physiologically accurate material properties. The purpose of this work was to ascertain material properties for the digital flexor tendons, median nerve and transverse carpal ligament to inform finite element simulations. The compressive mechanical behavior of the digital flexor tendons, median nerve and transverse carpal ligament was characterized under functionally relevant axial tensile loads. These properties can now be implemented into full scale finite element models of the carpal tunnel to evaluate the mechanism of insult to the median nerve leading to the development of carpal tunnel syndrome.

Abstract:

Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) affects roughly 3%–6% of the working population ages 18–64 [1]. This affliction is caused by applying stress on the median nerve that is routed through the carpal tunnel while it is at a positive or negative angle, greater than 15 degrees in either direction, to the human wrist [2]. The median nerve can become inflamed and swollen due to pressure from the palmar carpal ligament causing numbness, stiffness and in some cases severe pain. Tasks like typing can become nearly impossible when the median nerve is inflamed. A number of products on the market and research prototypes have been suggested that try to alleviate CTS strains, however, these designs are generally passive e.g. braces, splints, etc. Instead of actively trying to adjust the wrist angle, the general trend is to prop the wrist up with some sort of rigid ramp, similar to the bottom of a keyboard [3]. The goal of this work is to design a wearable, soft-actuated, robotic sleeve that will dynamically adjust the position of the wrist in real-time to a neutral angle to prevent or release CTS strains.

Abstract:

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a common, costly problem in the general population and particularly in manual workers [1–3], with as many as 3 million individuals experiencing its symptoms and signs, including pain, tingling, numbness, fatigue and weakness in the hands and fingers [4]. Treatment of CTS is estimated to cost over one billion dollars a year [5]. The most prevalent theory for the pathogenesis of CTS is compression of median nerve in the carpal tunnel [6]. Although this theory is widely accepted, the cause of the compression in the carpal tunnel is not fully understood. Epidemiological research has identified several occupational risk factors associated with the development of CTS in general industry including: force, repetition, awkward/static postures, localized mechanical compression, and vibration [7]. Several studies have found greater prevalence of carpal tunnel syndrome in workers with highly repetitive manual jobs [8]. Keyboarding is a highly repetitive daily task, and its association with musculoskeletal disorders of the upper extremity has been a public health concern since the 1980s [1]. However, there are controversial results regarding the association between computer keyboarding and CTS which indicate that we have an insufficient understanding of an association between keyboarding and upper limb neuropathy. Using ultrasonographic techniques, our laboratory was able to explore acute changes in the median nerve following a one-hour keyboarding task [9].

Abstract:

This work presents a new device ARDITA (Autonomous Reconfigurable Dynamic Investigation Test-rig on hAptics) that is able to indent the fingertip with sinusoidal waves. Its reconfigurability permits to change these waves in amplitude, spatial and timing frequencies. The device is designed in order to be autonomous and reconfigurable, but also the portability and the size were taken into account, because the clinicians had to move it from an hospital to the other one and because each patient arms has a different size. In this work, the authors applied this feature to investigate the relationship between the tactile sensitivity of index and little finger both in healthy people and people who suffer peripheral neuropathies as the Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS). The last ones were examined also with the Electromyography (EMG). 40 healthy people and 17 ill patients were tested. The results showed that ARDITA determined not only the index and little finger performance were inverted in patients respect to the subject, but also the increment of incorrect responses were perfected correlated with the increment of the degree of the illness.

Abstract:

Review question / Objective: We aim to compare the efficacy and safety of different acupuncture and related therapies for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) using systematic review and network meta-analysis (NMA). Condition being studied: CTS is a symptomatic condition caused by compression of the median nerve within the carpal tunnel. Patients with CTS typically report paresthesia or pain in distribution of median nerve distal to the wrist. Diverse non-surgical treatments and surgical decompression have been used in the management of CTS. Acupuncture, a prominent component of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), has also been practiced when treating CTS as a complementary therapy. However, the relative treatment effects of different acupuncture methods for CTS are unclear.

Abstract:

Review question / Objective: This meta-analysis aimed to compare the clinical effectiveness and safety between radioactive versus normal stent insertion for patients with malignant hilar obstruction. Condition being studied: Malignant hilar obstruction (MHO) is a common clinical condition that is caused by the hilar cholangiocarcinoma, gallbladder carcinoma, or hilar metastasis. Most of the patients with MHO underwent palliative biliary drainage or stening by an endoscopic or percutaneous approach until end of life. The previous studies suggested that that bilateral stent placement and the use of metal stents are superior to unilateral and plastic stents in the items of stent patency. However, bilateral stenting did not improve the patients’ overall survival (OS) because stent alone had no treatment effect on the tumors themselves. Although several treatment options, including chemotherapy, external radiation, intra-ductal brachytherapy, etc, has been used to prolong the stent patency and OS for patients with malignant biliary obstruction (MBO), intra-ductal brachytherapy using I-125 seeds has been widely used because of its persistent brachytherapeutic effect. To combine the I-125 seeds and metal stent together, many researchers have developed a radioactive stent (RS) for the patients with MBO. Many meta-analyses also confirmed that RS insertion was associated with significant longer stent patency and OS for patients with MBO when compared to normal stent (NS). However, whether RS can also provide a good effectiveness for patients with MHO is still unclear.
