Brief Summary:
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) which is defined as a symptomatic compression neuropathy of the median nerve at the level of the wrist.
Different types of splints are used for improving the function and decreasing the pain intensity and symptoms in the rehabilitation of patients with CTS.
However effectiveness of treatment by taping has never been investigated in physiotherapy and rehabilitation.
The aim of this study was to compare the short-term effect of conventional physiotherapy only, and also kinesio taping and night splinting in patients with CTS.

Detailed Description:
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) which is defined as a symptomatic compression neuropathy of the median nerve at the level of the wrist.It is considered as the most common disabling neuromuscular condition of the upper extremities.
Night splints are used in conjunction with the conservative intervention to improve the function and decrease the pain intensity and paresthesia in the rehabilitation of patients with carpal tunnel syndrome. However effectiveness of treatment by kinesiotaping has never been investigated.
The aim of this study was to compare the short-term effect of conventional physiotherapy only, and also kinesio taping and night splinting in addition to conventional physiotherapy in the rehabilitation of patients with CTS.
