Sponsor: Tampere University Hospital

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

A multi-center randomized controlled clinical trial which determines the efficacy of proximal median nerve release in patients with persistent proximal median nerve compression. The primary outcome is patient reported improvement of symptoms on a 7-point Likert scale at 6 months after the randomization to treatment group.

Official title: Efficacy of Operative Versus Conservative Treatment in Proximal Median Nerve Compression

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Proximal median nerve release

Participants randomized to operative treatment will be scheduled for surgery. During surgery, the proximal median nerve compression will be released in a manner deemed best by the treating surgeon. Patients randomized to surgery will also receive conservative management following surgery.

OTHER

Physiotherapy

Participants randomized to conservative treatment will receive information about median nerve compression and written instructions for self-directed nerve stretching exercises. There will be one supervision visit with a physiotherapist at the beginning of the treatment period.
