Median nerve behavior at different wrist positions among older males
The effect of wrist flexion-extension on the median nerve appearance, namely the cross-sectional area (MNCSA) and the longitudinal (D1) and vertical (D2) diameters, was investigated among older adults (N = 34). Ultrasound examination was conducted to examine the median nerve at different wrist angles (neutral; and 15°, 30°, and 45° extension and flexion), in both the dominant and nondominant ha...
متن کاملEffects of grip force on median nerve deformation at different wrist angles
The present study investigated the effects of grip on changes in the median nerve cross-sectional area (MNCSA) and median nerve diameter in the radial-ulnar direction (D1) and dorsal-palmar direction (D2) at three wrist angles. Twenty-nine healthy participants (19 men [mean age, 24.2 ± 1.6 years]; 10 women [mean age, 24.0 ± 1.6 years]) were recruited. The median nerve was examined at the proxim...
متن کاملeffect of wrist deviation on median nerve cross-sectional area at proximal carpal tunnel level
background: carpal tunnel syndrome (cts) is one of the most common musculoskeletal disorders among computer users. computer users exhibit various wrist angles while typing. dynamic changes of wrist angle may cause different degrees of median nerve compression. the objective of this study was thus to investigate the effects of the combination of wrist flexion-extension with wrist deviation on me...
متن کاملStudy of Median Palmar Cutaneous Nerve Involvement in a Patient with Wrist Ganglion
Background: Few reports represent palmar cutaneous nerve neuropathy in the wrist due to a ganglion cyst. Case Presentation: A 25-year-old female was presented with a mass at volar side of the wrist and hypoesthesia at the base of thenar eminence. At ulrasonographic examination, a simple cyst was detected. Sensory response of palmar cutaneous branch of median nerve was absent at the affec...
متن کاملHand workload, computer use and risk of severe median nerve lesions at the wrist.
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the effect of hand workload, especially computer use, on the incidence of severe, idiopathic median nerve lesions at the wrist (MNLW) in patients with idiopathic CTS. METHODS Data were prospectively collected for 444 patients with classic or probable CTS who were of working age and referred to our electrodiagnostic (EDX) laboratories. Clinical items recorded were age, ge...
