简要总结
We are looking at whether there is a difference in pain and function in the very early period when comparing carpal tunnel release performed by the endoscopic technique versus the open technique.
详细描述
The purpose of our study is to examine the very early (<2 weeks post-op) outcomes of endoscopic versus open carpal tunnel releases (CTR). We will call patients on post-operative days 3, 7 and 14 and collect Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE), Patient Related Wrist and Hand Evaluation (PRWHE), Visual Analog Scale (VAS) pain and return to work status at each time frame to see if there is any difference between the two procedures.

结局指标
主要结局
Post-operative pain
时间窗: This was assessed at post-operative days 3, 7, and 14
This was evaluated by administering the Patient Related Wrist and Hand Evaluation (PRWHE) questionnaire as well as obtaining a pain score using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS).
Function
时间窗: Function was assessed at post-operative days 3, 7 and 14.
Patients were first asked to assess the function of their operative hand and wrist using the Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE) tool. Function was also assessed by administering the Patient Related Wrist and Hand Evaluation (PRWHE) questionnaire.
次要结局
- Return to Work Status(Return to work status was assessed at post-operative days 3, 7, and 14.)
