Karpal tünnel sendromlu hastalarda elekronörografi ile boston anketi arasındaki ilişkilerin analizi

Amaç: Bu çalışmanın amacı, Karpal Tünel Sendrom(KTS)'lu hastalarda elektronörografi (ENG) ile Boston Anketi (BA) arasındaki ilişkileri saptamaktır. Materyal-Metot: Karpal tünel sendromlu yüz kırk bir hasta çalışmaya dahil edilmiştir. Hastaların yaş, cinsiyet, vücut kitle indeksi, semptom süresi ve gece ağrısı gibi demografik bulguları kaydedildi. Tinel ve Phalen testleri negative veya pozitif olarak not edildi. BA Semptom Ciddiyet Skalası (SCS) ve Fonksiyonel Ciddiyet Skalası(FCS)'nın skorları belirlendi. Ağrı Vizüel Analog Skala (VAS) üzerinde değerlendirildi. Median ve ulnar sinirlerin motor ve antidromik duyusal iletim çalışmaları gerçekleştirildi. Hastalar ENG ciddiyetine göre hafif, orta ve ağır KTS olarak 3 gruba ayrıldılar. Bulgular: Orta ve ciddi KTS'lu hastalarda hafif KTS'lu hastalardakine kıyasla VAS ağrı ve BA-SCS ve FCS skorları anlamlı olarak yüksek bulundu (p

Association analysis of electroneurography and boston questionnaire in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome

Objective:The aim of the study to clarify the relationships between Electroneurography (ENG) and Boston Questionnaire (BQ) in patients with Carpal Tunnel Syndrome (CTS) Material-Method:One hundred and forty-one patients with CTS were enrolled to this study. The demographic data as age, gender, body mass index, symptoms duration and night pain of the patients were recorded. Tinel and Phalen tests were noted as positive or negative. The scores of the BQ Symptom Severity Scale (SSS) and the Functional Status Scale (FSS) were measured. Pain was assessed on Visual Analog Scale (VAS). Motor and antidromic sensory conduction velocities of the median and ulnar nerves were performed. Patients were divided to three groups as mild, moderate and severe CTS according to the ENG outcomes. Results:The scores of the VAS pain and the BQ-FSS and SSS were found to be significantly higher in patients with moderate and severe CTS compared to those in mild CTS (p
