Carpal Arch Space Augmentation (CASA) Clinical Trial (NCT06208709)
Biomechanical Treatment of CTS Via Carpal Arch Space Augmentation: A Pilot Clinical Trial
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
This research proposes to evaluate the effectiveness of a novel device designed for the treatment of carpal tunnel syndrome. The device applies a small cyclic force to the wrist. The cycles include a small time period of force is applied, followed by a brief period of no force. The device is intended to be worn during hours of sleep. The efficacy of the treatment is evaluated based on patient reported outcomes. Treatment efficacy will also be evaluated based on comparisons to patient reported outcomes for a SOC treatment.
