摘要

本研究的目的是评估转移能量电容和电阻(TECAR)治疗对诊断为腕管综合征(CTS)患者疼痛、症状严重程度和功能的影响,并与超声(US)治疗进行比较。42例患者,年龄18 ~ 65岁,分为两组;1组采用US治疗,2组采用TECAR治疗。两组均采用石蜡治疗和腕部矫形器。所有患者均采用视觉模拟量表(VAS)评估疼痛和感觉异常水平,采用波士顿腕管问卷(BCTQ)评估症状严重程度和功能水平。此外,在基线、治疗后、第1个月和第3个月,通过超声测量正中神经横截面积(CSA)。根据我们的结果,在随访期间,两组患者的VAS和BCTQ(症状和功能)评分均有显著改善(p < 0.05)

Comparison of the effectiveness of ultrasound and transfer energy capacitive and resistive (TECAR) therapy in patients with carpal tunnel syndrome.

The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of Transfer Energy Capacitive and Resistive (TECAR) therapy on pain, symptom severity and function in patients diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) and to compare it with ultrasound (US) therapy. A total of 42 patients aged between 18 and 65 years, were divided into two groups; group 1 received US therapy, group 2 received TECAR therapy. Both groups received paraffin therapy and wrist orthosis. All Patients were evaluated using the Visual Analog Scale (VAS) for pain and paresthesia levels, the Boston Carpal Tunnel Questionnaire (BCTQ) for symptom severity and functional levels. Additionally, median nerve cross sectional area (CSA) was measured by ultrasound, at the baseline, post-treatment, first and third months. According to our results, VAS and BCTQ (symptom and function) scores significantly improved in both groups during follow-ups (all p < 0.01). However, there was no significant difference between the groups other than the VAS score at 3 months. At 3 months, Group 1 had a lower VAS score than Group 2 (p = 0.013). In Group 1, median nerve CSA decreased significantly after treatment (p < 0.001), and it was maintained during the first- and third-months follow-ups (p = 0.002 and p = 0.006, respectively). In Group 2, median nerve CSA decreased after treatment (p = 0.017) compared to before treatment and it returned to baseline levels in the third month (p = 0.770). While TECAR therapy may be beneficial in lowering pain and improving symptoms and functions in CTS patients, its effects were not as long-lasting as US. Clinical trial number: NCT06451094.

期刊介绍: Lasers in Medical Science (LIMS) has established itself as the leading international journal in the rapidly expanding field of medical and dental applications of lasers and light. It provides a forum for the publication of papers on the technical, experimental, and clinical aspects of the use of medical lasers, including lasers in surgery, endoscopy, angioplasty, hyperthermia of tumors, and photodynamic therapy. In addition to medical laser applications, LIMS presents high-quality manuscripts on a wide range of dental topics, including aesthetic dentistry, endodontics, orthodontics, and prosthodontics. The journal publishes articles on the medical and dental applications of novel laser technologies, light delivery systems, sensors to monitor laser effects, basic laser-tissue interactions, and the modeling of laser-tissue interactions. Beyond laser applications, LIMS features articles relating to the use of non-laser light-tissue interactions.
