Surgery for proximal median nerve compression
Part of Brain & nervous system clinical trials.
This study tests whether releasing the median nerve above the wrist can relieve hand pain, numbness, or weakness. It helps people with nerve compression in the arm that hasn't improved with other treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have been diagnosed with proximal median nerve compression (a squeezed nerve in your arm).
- If you've had carpal tunnel surgery, at least 6 months have passed since that surgery.
- You are 18 years or older.
- You can understand Finnish and fill out forms on a computer or phone by yourself.
- You do not have other nerve problems like multiple sclerosis or injuries that explain your symptoms.

This trial tests different ways of doing carpal tunnel release surgery to see which works best. If you have carpal tunnel syndrome confirmed by a nerve test, this study may help improve your hand pain and function.
This study tests whether magnetotherapy (using magnetic fields) can reduce pain and improve hand function in people with mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome. If you qualify, you may receive this non-invasive treatment as an alternative to more invasive options.
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 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 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.
This study looks at how well hand function and nerve signals recover after carpal tunnel release surgery. It measures improvements over time to help understand the healing process.
