İKİ YÜZ HASTANIN ELEKTROFİZYOLOJİK BULGULARININ BOSTON KARPAL TÜNEL SENDROMU ANKETİ SKORLARI VE MESLEKLER İLE İLİŞKİSİNİN İNCELENMESİ

Amaç: Karpal tünel sendromu (KTS) tanısında en güvenilir yöntem elektrodiagnostik tanı testlerdir. KTS ön tanısı ile polikliniklerden, elektrofizyoloji laboratuvarına yönlendirilen hastalardan kesin tanı alanların oranları, tanıya yardımcı sık kullanılan anketlerden Boston Karpal Tünel Sendromu Anketi (BKTSA) Türkçe versiyonu skorları ve meslekler ile ilişkisi değerlendirildi.

Comparing the Neurophysiological Findings of 200 Cases with Boston Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Questionnare Scores and Job Exposure

Objective: Electrodiagnostic diagnostic tests are the most reliable method in the diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). The rates of patients who were referred to the electrophysiology laboratory from outpatient clinics with a pre-diagnosis of CTS, the scores of the Turkish version of the Boston Carpal Tunnel Syndrome Questionnaire (BCTSQ), one of the frequently used questionnaires to aid diagnosis, and their relationship with the job exposure were evaluated.
