Brief Summary:
The diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome CTS is typically based on clinical findings and confirmatory electrodiagnostic testing However electrodiagnostic testing can only assess large A-alpha and A-beta nerve fibers Quantitative sensory testing QST is a series of tests used to assess small nerve fiber changes in the A-delta c-fibers and A-beta nerve fibers as well Previous studies have used QST to assess small nerve fiber changes related to carpal tunnel syndrome and found changes compared to controls This study will utilize a course of standard physical therapy care and assess for any changes to small nerve fiber activity and how those changes may or may not relate to patient outcomes
Detailed Description:
Purpose To assess changes in A-beta A-deta and C-fiber function after standard physical therapy interventions in individuals with CTS
Specific Aim 1 primary aim Determine if A-beta A-deta and C-fiber functions change following a course of Physical Therapy PT in individuals with CTS
Specific Aim 2 secondary aim Describe the relationship between changes in QST and changes in a patient-reported outcome measure after a course of PT in individuals with a clinical diagnosis of CTS
Specific Aim 3 secondary aim Determine if there are differences in A-beta A-deta and C-fiber function between the affected and unaffected wrists in individuals with a clinical diagnosis of CTS
