Brief Summary:
The aim of the present study is to compare the analgesic efficacy of Dexmedetomidine, Ozone and Dexamethasone regional injection in carpal tunnel syndrome.
Detailed Description:
Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a collection of symptoms and signs associated with median neuropathy at the carpal tunnel. Most CTS is related to idiopathic compression of the median nerve as it travels through the wrist at the carpal tunnel.
Corticosteroid injection is an extensively used and accepted treatment in mild to moderate CTS according to the guidelines of the American Academy of Orthopedic Surgeons as corticosteroids reduce the inflammation and edema associated with CTS. However, there is no guideline as to which corticosteroid has to be used as the standard treatment in CTS.
Triamcinolone acetonide, a commonly used steroid for this indication, is a particulate steroid, which can cause permanent nerve injury if accidentally injected into the nerve.
Local ozone injection as a therapeutic option in some musculoskeletal conditions; ozone (O3) gas is a molecule consisting of three oxygen atoms in a dynamically unstable structure. Ozone therapy has been utilized and studied for more than a century.
