Testing a hand symptom scale for carpal tunnel syndrome
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests whether a hand-related questionnaire called the MAP-Hand Scale is a reliable and accurate tool for people with carpal tunnel syndrome. If you have mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome in one hand, your answers could help improve how doctors measure symptoms.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
