Effect of Neurodynamic Technique on Paraesthesia and Nerve Conduction Velocity in Carpal Tunnel Syndrome: An Interventional Study
Prerna Dilip Batheja, Dr. Jayshree Sutaria
Abstract: Background: CTS is a musculoskeletal disorder associated with work activity in the affected individuals, which is caused by strain and repetitive activity, making it a common problem across Globe. Neural mobilization is a manual therapy treatment that alters the physiological properties of nerves, the primary mechanical event in the nervous system is the movement of the neural structures relative to their adjacent tissues. The Semmes Weinstein Monofilament Test, also referred to as the Touch Threshold Test, is one of the clinical tests that measures the response to a touching sensation of the monofilaments using a numerical quantity. Nerve conduction studies (NCS) are objective measures to quantify sensory and motor nerve conduction velocity. Method: Total 30 patients were divided into two groups randomly by chit method. Group A (Interventional) received Neurodynamic technique plus conventional treatment while Group B (Conventional) received conventional treatment only. Participants received treatment for 3 days per week for 4 weeks. Both groups were screened at 4 weeks for sensation and nerve conduction studies and analysis was done using spss version 20. Conclusion: In present study Group A (Interventional) showed more clinically as well as statistically significant effect than Group B(Conventional) hence the study have accepted the Alternate Hypothesis and Rejected the Null Hypothesis. Thus, It can be concluded that Neurodynamic technique is effective in improving paraesthesia and nerve conduction velocity in individuals with carpal tunnel syndrome.
