electrodiagnostic studies after carpal tunnel injections
I was recently asked to do a follow up study for carpal tunnel syndrome. the patient had an electrodiagnostic study 16 months ago. she had been recieving injections since than with declining benefit. she had just recieved an injection 2 weeks before the my study. I proceeded with the electrodiagnostic study as she noted limited benefit from the injection and I was not aware of any research evaluating the effects of injections on electrodiagnostic results. Is anyone aware of any research that does look at the effects on electrodiagnostic studies from carpal tunnel injections?

I enjoy participating in the AANEM Connect Forum for a number of reasons. There are very fundamental questions posed on a frequent basis that cause me to pause and ask myself, ‘Why didn’t I think of that?’ Also, I continue to learn new things when others contribute their thoughts and experiences. Connect is an excellent opportunity for members to interact and to address any topic, including those that may not be discussed at an annual meeting or journal article.
