Sponsor's own description
This study was conducted to compare the effectiveness of different treatment combinations in individuals with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). Participants were divided into three groups: The control group received only night splinting and exercise programme, while the second group received extracorporeal shock wave therapy (ESWT) in addition. The third group received kinesiobanding in addition to night splinting, exercise and ESWT. The study evaluates the effect of multimodal conservative treatment approaches on CTS symptoms and aims to demonstrate the additional benefits of ESWT and kinesiobanding in particular. The findings provide important clues for clinical practice.
