Carpal tunnel symptom location and pain study
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma, Pain clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You are between 18 and 65 years old
- You can read and write

- You do not have diabetes, an inflammatory disease, active infection, or cancer
- You do not have other nerve conditions like polyneuropathy, radiculopathy, or multiple sclerosis
- You have not had an injection or surgery for carpal tunnel in the last 6 months

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 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.
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 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.
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 whether a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment can reduce chronic carpal tunnel (CTS) pain, especially when pain spreads beyond the usual nerve area. If you have long-lasting CTS pain that hasn’t improved with standard treatments, you may be able to try this therapy while being closely monitored for safety.
