Peripheral nerve entrapment syndromes are difficult diagnoses to make. Symptoms are often vague and mimic other musculoskeletal pathology. Clinicians' best diagnostic tools for entrapment neuropathies are a good history, physical examination, and anatomical knowledge. Neurodiagnostic testing and advanced imaging have some role to play in entrapment neuropathies, but these are not always necessa...

The construct of entrapment is used in evolutionary theory to explain the etiology of depression. The perception of entrapment can emerge when defeated individuals want to escape but are incapable. Studies have shown relationships of entrapment to depression, and suicidal tendencies. The aim of this study was a psychometric evaluation and validation of the Entrapment Scale in German (ES-D). 540...

OBJECTIVE To investigate whether "diseased nerves" are more prone to entrapment neuropathy than normal nerves. Nerve conduction studies of human neuropathies have shown that electrophysiological abnormalities are often most prominent at potential sites of nerve entrapment, and entrapments are more common in patients with radiculopathies--a concept designated as "double crush". As entrapment neu...

BACKGROUND Catheter entrapment due to severe radial artery spasm (RAS) during transradial coronary catheterization has been rarely reported and its management is not precisely defined. The aim of this study was to determine the incidence, predictors and management of catheter entrapment due to severe RAS. METHODS A total of 723 patients undergoing transradial coronary catheterization at a sin...
