Summary
The objective of the present study is to compare the effectiveness of 5% dextrose, local
corticosteroids injections and surgical release in patients with electrodiagnostically (EDx)
mild to moderate carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS). The investigators hypothesize that in patients
with mild to moderate CTS (1) local 5% dextrose injections is non-inferior to local
corticosteroid injections at 12 months after treatment, and that (2) local 5% dextrose
injections are of non-inferior effectiveness compared to surgical release at 6 months.
