Hydrodissection vs open release for carpal tunnel syndrome

This study compares two treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome: a newer injection-based approach (hydrodissection with neuroprolotherapy) and the traditional open surgery. It aims to see which one works better for people who haven't improved with standard treatments like splints or physical therapy.

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.

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.

Carpal tunnel surgery with local anesthesia, with or without nerve block

This study compares two ways of giving pain control during carpal tunnel release surgery: local anesthesia alone versus local anesthesia plus a targeted nerve block. It may help find the safest and most comfortable option for people having carpal tunnel surgery.
