摘要：

Carpal tunnel syndrome is the most common entrapment neuropathy seen in the electrodiagnostic laboratory. Clinical assessment is an important part of the electrodiagnostic consultation and helps to form an appropriate differential diagnosis. Sensory conduction studies are a critical part of the evaluation. Using a summary index, such as the combined sensory index, is preferable to considering single tests. Motor conduction studies are also important as they will detect isolated compression of motor branches or fascicles. Needle EMG is useful to detect axon loss as well as to evaluate for other peripheral nervous system sites of impairment. The electrodiagnostic examination can also impart information about the likelihood of success after carpal tunnel release. © 2015, Springer Science + Business Media New York.
