İdiopatik Karpal Tünel Sendromunda Boston Anketinin kullanılması: Skorlarının Klinik ve Nörofizyolojik Bulgular ile Karşılaştırılması

Amaç: Bu çalışmada, idiopatik karpal tünel sendromunda, Boston Anketinin (BA) Türkçe versiyonunun ankette elde edilen skorlarının klinik ve elektrofizyolojik bulgularla karşılaştırılmasını yapmayı amaçladık. Yöntem: İdiopatik karpal tünel sendromlu 100 hasta çalışmaya alındı. Hastaların hepsine BA’i uygulandı. Alınan sonuçlar vizüel analog skala (VAS) ve elektrofizyolojik ciddiyet skalası (ESS) ile karşılaştırılarak değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Toplam 100 olgunun 86’sı kadın, 14’ü erkekti. Ortalama yaşları 44.1±9.72 olarak değerlendirildi Hastalara uygulanan BA skorları ile VAS ve ESS arasında anlamlı bir ilişki saptandı (p

Assessment of the Boston Questionnaire in Diagnosis of Idiopathic Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: Comparing Scores with Clinical and Neurophysiological Findings

Aim: In this study we aimed to make a comparison of Turkish version of Boston Questionnaire (BQ) scores with clinical and electrophysiological findings in idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome. Method: Hundred patients with idiopathic carpal tunnel syndrome were included in the study. BQ was applied for all the patients. Data were compared with visual analogue scale (VAS) and electrophysiological severity scale (ESS). Results: Eighty-six of patients were female and 14 were male with mean age 44.1±9.72. A statistically significant correlation between BQ and VAS and EES scores was obtained (p
