Observational study assesses functional outcomes post-surgery in carpal tunnel syndrome patients, indicating significant improvement.

The study aims to evaluate functional outcomes after carpal tunnel release surgery using the QuickDASH questionnaire.
Conducted a retrospective study of 35 patients diagnosed with carpal tunnel syndrome from January 2023 to December 2025.
Assessments were made using QuickDASH scores preoperatively and six months post-surgery.
Diagnosis was based on clinical examinations and neurophysiological studies.
77.14% of patients had a QuickDASH score below 25 at six months post-surgery.
85.72% of patients scored above 50 during the preoperative evaluation.
Improvements were noted across all subjects, although some variability in DASH scores was observed.

Bharti et al. (2026) studied this question.
