Brief Summary
Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.
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
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
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.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Kinesiotaping
A total of 20 sessions physiotherapy sessions including hot pack, ultrasound and exercise program (tendon and nerve gliding exercises=2 times per day 3sets of ten repetitions) will be applied.
Additionally for this group, kinesiotaping will be applied by using carpal tunnel technique including button hole and I band technique of space correction; and with 25-50% tension in center of tape over dorsal carpal tunnel at the end of the each session. Patients will request to keep kinesiotaping at nights throughout the study.

Night splinting
A total of 20 sessions physiotherapy sessions including hot pack, ultrasound and exercise program (tendon and nerve gliding exercises=2 times per day 3sets of ten repetitions) will be applied.
Additionally, night splinting will be advised. Patients will request to keep their splints at nights throughout the study.
Night Splinting
A total of 20 sessions physiotherapy sessions including hot pack, ultrasound, night splinting and exercise program (tendon and nerve gliding exercises=2 times per day 3 sets of ten repetitions) will be applied.
