Outline of Final Research Achievements

This study aimed to assess the usefulness of screening employing a carpal tunnel syndrome instrument (CTSI) for detection of carpal tunnel syndrome. The results indicated scores on 5 items from the CTSI to be useful for detecting carpal tunnel syndrome. Furthermore, it was suggested that a prediction formula including sex and 1 item from the CTSI can be used for differentiating between carpal tunnel syndrome and cervical spine disease. CTSI is thus applicable to mass screening.
