Nerve sensitivity in carpal tunnel syndrome
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests how small nerve fibers work in people with carpal tunnel syndrome. It uses simple sensory tests to understand nerve function, which may help guide treatment.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

This study tests a combination of hands-on therapy and a small electrical nerve stimulation treatment to reduce pain and improve hand function in people with moderate carpal tunnel syndrome. It may help you avoid surgery and find relief from symptoms that have lasted at least 3 months.
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.
This study compares different non-surgical treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome, such as hand exercises and other therapies. It aims to find the best way to reduce hand pain, tingling, and numbness.
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.
This study tests whether desensitisation therapy and pain neuroscience education help people with carpal tunnel syndrome who have a type of pain called 'nociplastic' (pain without clear tissue damage). It aims to reduce pain and improve function.
This study looks at how different types of carpal tunnel syndrome (a nerve condition in your wrist) respond to treatment. By classifying your specific symptoms, doctors hope to tailor therapy to your needs.
