Hand therapy plus nerve stimulation for carpal tunnel
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This study tests whether combining gentle hand/wrist therapy with a tiny electrical stimulation (needle-like) can improve moderate carpal tunnel syndrome symptoms. It is for adults aged 30–50 who have not had previous carpal tunnel surgery and don't have other health issues affecting the nerves or wrist.

This study looks at how ultrasound, nerve tests, and hand function relate to carpal tunnel syndrome. It aims to improve understanding of the condition and may help guide future treatment decisions.
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 trial compares two gentle hand therapies (myofascial release vs. acupressure) for new mothers with carpal tunnel syndrome. It aims to find which treatment better relieves hand numbness and pain.
This study tests whether combining a special type of pain education with standard rehabilitation helps people with moderate to severe carpal tunnel syndrome feel better and improve hand function. It aims to help you understand your pain and recover.
This trial compares two treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome: a newer needle-based technique called hydrodissection with neuroprolotherapy versus traditional open surgery. If you've tried splints, medications, or physical therapy without relief, this study tests which approach works better and is safer.
This study tests a new way to treat carpal tunnel syndrome in the right hand without surgery. It may help people with mild to moderate symptoms who have not had recent injections or other treatments.
