Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
60 carpal tunnel syndrome patients diagnosed with electroneuromyelography will be included in the study. 30 patients will wear wrist splints for 1 month. In the other 30 patients, pulsed radiofrequency current will be given through the wrist median nerve trace. RF current will be applied through transcutaneous pads. It will be applied once a week for a total of 2 sessions, 8 minutes each. Boston carpal tunnel syndrome questionnaire with visual analog scale (VAS) will be applied to all patients before and after the treatment at 1 week and 1 month.
Our aim is to compare the effectiveness of wrist splint and pulsed rf therapy.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Wrist splint group
The group to be treated with a wrist splint
Wrist splint
A wrist splint is a It stabilizes your wrist. Wearing a wrist splint minimizes pressure on the median nerve.
Transcutaneous pulsed RF group
The group to be treated with transcutaneous pulsed RF
Pulsed radiofrequency current
Pulsed rf current is delivered to the median nerve trace via transcutaneous pads. Pain expression is suppressed in the dorsal horn of the spinal cord.
