Amniotic membrane and secretome for carpal tunnel release
Treatments studied
Part of Brain & nervous system, Injuries & trauma clinical trials.
This trial tests whether adding a special membrane (amniotic membrane) and a natural healing fluid (secretome) to standard carpal tunnel release surgery can improve hand function better than surgery alone. It may be a good option if your wrist pain and numbness haven't gone away with other treatments.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have moderate-to-severe carpal tunnel syndrome (confirmed by a nerve test called electromyography).
- Your symptoms have not improved with non-surgical treatments like wrist splints or anti-inflammatory medicines.
- You have not had carpal tunnel release surgery on the same wrist before.
- You do not have diabetes, high blood pressure, or other metabolic disorders that might slow nerve healing.
- Your symptoms are not caused by a neck problem (like cervical radiculopathy).

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 trial tests if paraffin wax baths and peloidotherapy (mud therapy) help reduce symptoms of mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome (a hand nerve condition). It may be a good fit if you haven't had prior wrist surgery, steroid injections, or other nerve problems.
This trial compares two treatments for carpal tunnel syndrome: a corticosteroid injection (which reduces swelling) and a newer technique called nerve hydrodissection (which uses fluid to free the nerve). The goal is to see which works better for relieving pain and improving hand function.
This study compares two surgical approaches for carpal tunnel syndrome—one that releases pressure on the median nerve in one location versus releasing it in two locations. The goal is to find out which approach works better for relieving symptoms like numbness and tingling in the hand.
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.
This study uses hand ultrasound to evaluate carpal tunnel syndrome before and after surgery. It may help doctors understand how the wrist changes after treatment.
