This trial tests whether auriculotherapy (needles or pressure on specific points in the ear) can help reduce pain after endoscopic carpal tunnel surgery. If you have carpal tunnel syndrome and are scheduled for this surgery, you may be able to join.
ParisAges 20 years+ - NCT07723313RecruitingEarly Phase 1
Amniotic membrane and secretome for carpal tunnel release
This trial tests whether adding a special membrane (amniotic membrane) and a natural healing fluid (secretome) to standard carpal tunnel release surgery can improve hand function better than surgery alone. It may be a good option if your wrist pain and numbness haven't gone away with other treatments.
Denpasar, BaliAges 18 years+ - NCT06243848Recruiting
Injection vs. surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome
This trial compares two treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome: an ultrasound-guided injection and a surgery to take pressure off the median nerve. It aims to see which one provides better relief for symptoms like numbness and tingling.
AfyonkarahisarAges 18–75 - NCT06440070Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided needle thread release for carpal tunnel
This trial tests a new, less invasive way to release the tight ligament in the wrist that causes carpal tunnel syndrome. It uses ultrasound to guide a curved needle and thread to cut the ligament, which may lead to less pain and faster recovery.
Guangzhou, GuangdongAges 40–70 - NCT06593977Recruiting
Dynavisc gel for pain after repeat carpal tunnel surgery
This trial tests a gel called Dynavisc to see if it reduces pain when placed in the wrist during a second surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome. It may help people who still have pain after their first surgery.
Leuven, BelgiumAges 18–65 - NCT07134361Recruiting
Ultrasound study for carpal tunnel syndrome
This study uses hand ultrasound to evaluate carpal tunnel syndrome before and after surgery. It may help doctors understand how the wrist changes after treatment.
São Paulo, São PauloAges 18 years+ - NCT07312123Recruiting
Vitamin mix for carpal tunnel recovery
This trial tests if taking a mix of vitamins can help adults heal better after surgery for carpal tunnel syndrome. It might help reduce pain and improve hand function.
Kubang Kerian, KelantanAges 18 years+ - NCT07324005Recruiting
Ultrasound-guided carpal tunnel release and injection for carpal tunnel syndrome
This trial tests a new treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome that uses ultrasound to guide a needle to release a tight ligament in the wrist and inject a sugar-water solution around the nerve. This may help relieve pain and numbness without surgery.
TaipeiAges 20–80 - NCT07614425Recruiting
Surgery for Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Study
This study tests surgical treatment for carpal tunnel syndrome—a condition where a nerve in your wrist gets compressed, causing numbness, tingling, or pain in your hand. You may qualify if you have confirmed carpal tunnel syndrome and conservative treatments like splints haven't helped.
HelsinkiAges 18–75 - NCT07752797Recruiting
Ultrasound and nerve tests for carpal tunnel syndrome
This study looks at how ultrasound, nerve tests, and hand function relate to carpal tunnel syndrome. It aims to improve understanding of the condition and may help guide future treatment decisions.
Küçükçekmece, IstanbulAges 18–65 - NCT05637294Recruiting
Compare night-only versus full-time splinting for carpal tunnel
This study looks at whether wearing a wrist splint only at night works as well as wearing it full-time for carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). It may help you find the most helpful and practical splint schedule to reduce symptoms.
HelsinkiAges 18 years+ - NCT05783245Recruiting
Cooling therapy to reduce pain after open carpal tunnel surgery
This trial studies whether cooling (cold therapy) can lessen pain after open carpal tunnel release surgery. If you’re having this surgery, your answers to questionnaires and your current pain-medication status will determine whether you can join.
Chicago, IllinoisAges 18 years+ - NCT06045013RecruitingPhase 3
Dextrose injection vs. dextrose with steroid for carpal tunnel
This study tests whether adding a common steroid (methylprednisolone) to a dextrose (sugar water) injection works better than dextrose alone for carpal tunnel syndrome. Both treatments are injected into the wrist to reduce pain and numbness.
KninAges 18–80 - NCT06405438Recruiting
Mud therapy vs. paraffin wax for carpal tunnel syndrome
This trial compares two non-surgical treatments—mud therapy (peloid) and paraffin wax—for people with mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome. It aims to see which one better eases symptoms like numbness, tingling, and hand pain.
IstanbulAges 18–65 - NCT06469931Recruiting
Ozone therapy for carpal tunnel syndrome
This trial tests if ozone injections can help people with mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome. It may offer a new way to treat hand numbness and pain without surgery.
ElâzığAges 18–65 - NCT06599086Recruiting
Steroid shot for carpal tunnel with split nerve
This study tests if a steroid injection helps people with carpal tunnel syndrome who also have a split median nerve (called bifid median nerve). It compares them to people without the split nerve to see if the treatment works differently.
Ankara, AnkaraAges 18–65 - NCT07660913Recruiting
Vibrating therapy for carpal tunnel syndrome
This study tests whether a gentle vibrating therapy (matrix rhythm therapy) can help relieve pain, tingling, and numbness from carpal tunnel syndrome. Participants will receive the therapy, and researchers will track if it improves hand function without surgery or drugs.
IzmirAges 18–60 - NCT06658886Recruiting
Corticosteroid injection vs. paraffin therapy for carpal tunnel syndrome
This trial compares two treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome: an ultrasound-guided corticosteroid injection or paraffin wax therapy. It aims to find which option works better for people with mild to moderate symptoms lasting at least 3 months.
Istanbul, BeylikdüzüAges 18–65 - NCT06687018Recruiting
Comparing two hand therapies for carpal tunnel relief
This study tests two types of gentle hand and wrist movements (mobilizations) to see which better relieves pain, tingling, and numbness in carpal tunnel syndrome. It may help you if you have these symptoms and are otherwise healthy.
Lahore, Punjab ProvinceAges 20–45 - NCT06882603Recruiting
Steroid injections and nerve hydrodissection for carpal tunnel
This trial compares two treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome: a corticosteroid injection (which reduces swelling) and a newer technique called nerve hydrodissection (which uses fluid to free the nerve). The goal is to see which works better for relieving pain and improving hand function.
Kırşehir, City CentreAges 18–65 - NCT06977321Recruiting
Taping vs mud therapy for carpal tunnel syndrome
This study tests whether taping therapy (kinesiotaping) or a mud pack treatment (peloidotherapy) can help reduce pain and improve function for people with mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome. It may be an option if you want non-surgical, drug-free relief.
KonyaAges 1.5 years–5.4 years - NCT07114913Recruiting
Carpal tunnel symptom location and pain study
This study looks at where carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms show up and how your body processes pain. By understanding this, doctors hope to find better ways to treat it.
