Summary
Participation will be for approximately 21 days (3 study visits,1 week apart with allowance
for scheduling conflicts). A topical (or placebo) foam alone or with a splint will be used.
Demographic and symptom information will be obtained. At each visit 3 questionnaires (BCT,
CTS-6, and DASH) will be completed and an ultrasound of the wrist (median nerve) will be done
to document any change in symptoms and/or in the size of the nerve. Random assignment will be
to one of 4 groups: foam or placebo with or without a night splint. We will provide
instruction on how to apply the foam, whether or not and how to wear the splint, and return
visits.
